And this is a beauty 1966 5 franc. It’s gotta be uncirculated right??newbie here

 

Not even close on either of them, sorry.
That big scratch down the obverse of the Mexican peso kills it.

The Swiss 5 franc has lots of hairlines in the fields on the obverse. I think it has been cleaned.

 

Hate to dissapoint but the mexico peso is mid-AU at best, however the scratch would make it AU details. The 5 franc might not be cleaned, but it seems it circulated a bit resulting in loss of luster and scrapes in the fields. I would give it an AU58.

 

I wouldn't pay more than melt for either coin.

 

Agree. Also the peso is 10% silver.

 

Yeah they are pretty much nothing lol. All the years had high mintages and you can get really nice ones for basically melt.

 

I wasn’t insinuating they were worth much money, just trying to figure out a scope of the way grading works, exactly what u guys have told me.. thank you for your expertise.
