Interesting design. looks like the 7th congress of panamerican iron rails. I'm guessing you didn't attend, but did you pick this up for the railroad theme or because it was a Mexican medal?

I love the eagle used on the first medal.
As a little kid it was the eagles of Mexico that drew part of my interest in that direction. At 6 I collected US eagles but by 8 I realized the Mexican eagles were cheaper and there was a myriad of types compared to US.

I am enjoying this. Anything exonumia I can appreciate.
I noticed you where going in chronological order at first but skipped '53. Do you not have one for that year?
May I ask why you got into medals or Mexico?I have not done much with medals (just coins and tokens) and am interested in why those two themes together.
