    Hey RickieB,

    Hope you have a great trip!!! Yes, you can pick up some polymers in Mexico but I think I would be looking for some old silver as well. If you see anything interesting you will have to tell us about it.

    Be Safe & Have Fun!!!

    Lotsa things that is local and regular in Mexico or other lands is unique to us. Especially old silver or gold coins and older paper notes. Do some maja shopping. Hope your search hits paydirt and you can pay for that trip by finding that special something.

    Have fun on the trip. Buyyyy:mad:
