Not that it matters, but I just counted again, and this time I got 128... and I counted three times before sending my answers! Was a fun and challenging contest!  |

Congratulations and well done Zurie.
This was a fun and informative contest to follow.
Many facts in the posts and a lot of work on your part nss-52. Thank you.
I meant to follow-up with some online sleuthing and venture a guess but my attention span was challenged this past week.
One answer I found concerning the date of the mint while looking up a different question, I found on Numista. But it stated 1823. (I found this information after finding the 1535 date, so I was a little confused.) I would have used the 1823 date since that was the year of Mexico's independence from Spain.
Anyways, thanks again for a really interesting contest.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

The question asks what Mexico considers the date to be, and they have consistently issued coins and medals using the 1535 date.
