[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 26084712, member: 4373"]Let's say the letters are present in the original issue. This reminds of Spanish coins but they had years in their stars instead of letters. The timing of when these coins were struck should pose some interesting questions. The original issue of this coin was in 1917. This was during the chaotic Mexico revolution. Was this coin issued right after the 1917 constitution? Revolution coins issued around 1915 are electrum coins with minuscule amount of gold. The word 'guerrero' seems to be very important during this time. Could it be a guerrero peso? OR throwing something absolutely wild A tribute to this guy?
