Well Catman I just received a Mexican 1888 eight reales from another collector. the obverse is the cap and rays with Libertad and the reverse is of the Eagle STILL trying to eat that darn snake!!! Guess I have a new favorite Mexican coin but do wish it had been a higher grade. I suppose, being unfamiliar grading such coins, this would grade Fine to VF but none the less it is, as I said before, BIG, SILVER and ROUND so it most definitely welcome here!

Hey Catman, when I clicked on the link for the picture, it was a picture of the note we were talking about earlier. ***Never mind, it's taken care of  ******* |

Hey Catman- the link is a picture of a SAE. I also love the Libertads, I have one for my world silver buillion collection. Gotta agree with C64- anything large, round, and silver is OK by me! Heck, I'll take little or square too, so long as it's silver!

Kyra have you seen the Australia SQUARE Kookabura one half ounce silvers? I bought the 2004's and now trying to find some affordable 2002 and 2003's to catch up with the whole series!

I checked out the online catalog at the Perth Mint site, and I had to tear myself away. Could've spent all day there, and that wouldn't have been good for the old Visa! Rachel [:p] |

I always liked the Un Peso "Cabalito" coin, the one with Miss Liberty riding on a horse and holding up a broken chain link. Now I have a question for the Darksiders. A lot of Mexican coins have an eagle on the reverse munching on a snake or holding a snake in it's talons, presumably to munch on later. Now if Mexicans coins are Darkside and serpents are symbolic of the darkside--(or "shadow-figures" in Jung Archetype speak) then are these reverses death-wish or "Goth-side" coins?  |
