<p>[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 906464, member: 19165"]My well-known fascination with prooflike coinage has led me to watch the auctions for foreign prooflike coinage, although my main focus is a prooflike US type set. Many countries made prooflike coinage on purpose, specially polishing the dies and making intentional prooflike sets (Canada being the obvious example). I have little to no interest in these prooflikes. I am far more intrigued by the accidental prooflike - the coin that was struck as a natural part of operations. As far as I know, Mexico did not intentionally make prooflike sets - and there are only 3 prooflike Peso's graded in the NGC census (for the entire series, 1905 to present). The coin I am about to show you is the only one graded for 1965, and currently rests in a MS-64 PL slab. </p><p><br /></p><p>So, comments?
