Hey all. I have been looking for a Mexican coin book that covered up to current day. The best I can find is either the Krause world coin book, the Krause North American book or Mexican books printed in 1963. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance

Krause published "The Standard Catalog of Mexican Coins, Paper Money, Bonds, and Medals" back in 1981 - you should be able to find a used copy.

Other than the current versions of the other two books you mentioned, I'm not aware of any new/recent books devoted to the coins of Mexico.

I have the Buttrey and Hubbard "A Guide Book of Mexican Coins 1822 to Date" (Second Edition) published back in 1971 in my library. It's definitely a step up from the two current Krause books you mentioned in terms of historical content about the various coinage eras of Mexico but it stops with coins issued 40+ years ago. It's still a worthwhile pickup for the history it contains.

Thanks for the heads up on a Mexican coinage resource. I too had been relying on the Krause books and have been scouring the interned for more info.

Thanks Carl, I tried Google too but lost hope after such example as, "Free Books about The COIN Approach to Mexican Drug Cartel" on my second page.
