This coin isn't in my Krause World Coins Circulating Issues book.

Did they just miss it, or is it a commemorative...or some other reason?

The coin is silver, and issued in 1970, when silevr had mostly disappeared from circulating coins worldwide - so it probably wasn't intended for circulation.

I was referring to the dental profession, where dentists are rare these days (at least in the UK)


Well, I'll be happy to work in the UK if you have a vacant position for me.

Am I right in saying hat only the Mexican Pesos (50,100?) hav any silver in them at all now?

EgCol' - The last I heard, there was a shortage so if you wanted to work in this raindrenched country you would probably be very welcome.

Does the 50 still? My Krause does not show any circulating after 1995, same as the 20 pesos.
