...someone took some time to add a little personality to that cent, Hondo ...pretty cool ... ....although, there's no telling where this counterfeit was made ... as it's details are accurate, & was struck from mechanical dies, it most likely was made by a competing nation / banking interest that wanted to devalue & undermine Mexico's economy ... struck from brass & silver washed, with some silver remaining... ... USA to Mexico ...  Edited by mrwiskers
