Sleaklight Pillar of the Community United States 827 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 8:38 pm Is this an actual Mexican silver coin or is it just a Mexican silver round? If it's a coin, which one is it? Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16829 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 9:00 pm It's an Onza, the Mexican government bullion coin - their equivalent of the American ASE. Listed in the Krause world coin catalogues as KM# 494.4, mintage 400,000. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Sleaklight Pillar of the Community United States 827 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 9:58 pm Oh! Ok thanks. I guess it's basically it's worth it's weight in silver lol. I guess paying $18 for it was too much. I'm a n00b Report this Post to the Staff

Amazon99 - The toning is nice, especially on the obverse. The toning actually looks like it's part of the design as it gives a really cool sky effect above the mountains.
