<p>[QUOTE=&quot;YoloBagels, post: 7747382, member: 94739&quot;]Hello everyone,</p><p><br /></p><p>In case you haven&#039;t been following with my instagram page, I have been in Mexico City for a few days while visiting family and other places.</p><p><br /></p><p>Today we decided to go to a market where they mainly sell souvenirs. However, one of the stands in there was actually a coin store! I honestly didn&#039;t expect to see anything like this on the trip, so I was excited to go.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1326520[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>They strictly sold Mexican coins, consisting of cob reales, pillar and portrait reales, first republic reales, and others. They also had piles of 1910&#039;s-1950&#039;s coins ranging from 2-5 pesos each (basically a few cents in USD). All of the older silver coins were improperly cleaned, sadly <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> (but still fairly priced!)</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, they only took cash, which I didn&#039;t have much of because my parents have been &quot;borrowing&quot; mine for a few days. But I still managed to get some really nice coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, here&#039;s what I got. Ill go back for more sometime later during the trip.</p><p><br /></p><p>1862 Guanajuato 1/2 reale, XF Details, improperly cleaned. Already had one in basal state for my type set, but this one is MUCH nicer, even though it&#039;s cleaned.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1326523[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>1851 Guanajuato 4 reales, old eagle, F Details - Improperly cleaned &amp; graffiti. Another hole filler.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1326529[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Three 1940&#039;s 50 centavos, all in nice MS condition. They had quite a few of these but I cherrypicked the nicest. They all have that frosty semi-PL look that this era is known for.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1326532[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Last are two frosty PL Olympic 25 pesos. Couldn&#039;t get good pictures. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1326536[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
