<p>[QUOTE="rexesq, post: 966266, member: 5739"]Hm. I understand what you are saying about fakes and everything. I surely haven't ran into, or heard of any fake common date Mexican 20 centavos, that I know of, that is. And like you said, just one detected fake would be enough to throw things about other similar coins into question. However I have heard of other various common date coins from other countries being counterfeited en masse, or at least in fairly large quantities.</p><p> Tough call on your coin.... I am not at all knowledgeable enough to make any determination. I do see what you mean about the denticles, but aside from that, it looks pretty good to me, but you did said it was light, 3.36 grams in the 2x2 you said, and the coin should weigh 3.3333grams by itself.... so that is a bit odd.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
