You know, I always saw the angel and didn't really pay much attention to the rest of it.
--------------------
From the site you posted NIC -
The coin design features two very prominent Mexican symbols. The Independence Angel - which is the main historic monument for the Mexican people and Mexican volcanoes (Lovers Peaks) in the background.
The reverse carries the national seal of Mexico in the center, surrounded by previous seals used throughout Mexico's history.
----------------
If you can see it in the picture I took, on the right of the Angel, there is a cactus on the bottom. In between the cactus and the volcano, which is located midway, there is something like a house, farm, or water well. Can't tell. I ordered a magnifying glass from our science dept and will take a look at it when it comes. If you know what it is, please let me know. I am going to try to take a better picture, but I think I am already reaching the limits of the camera.

If they ever got their act together in marketing, the Casa de Moneda (Mexican mint) could sell a ton of these.

What do you mean by "get their act together"?
Any interesting reads or information would be helpful.

Yes, they are there as shown on this 8X pic, perhaps an artist's vision?  |

Bejon, know the name of the dealer that your brother got the roll at?
I'm looking for a supplier other than the local bank (I'm in Mexico).

Got the info. But I can't message you because you have limited privelages and I don't think I'm allowed to post that information in a thread. I will check the rules and get back to you.

some places in U.S. sell it for 13% over. But you have to buy min qty. About as cheap as you're probably going to get it in Mexico. I dont know if I can post numbers and emails, still no reply from Admins. The main dealers name is Pedro Alvarez.
