Loonie, the coin you chose disappears from my list, when I enter -"dollar' in the search bar, even though the word dollar does not appear on the page. Need to be careful sometimes.

Pesos are not dollars. Can't fool me, and you know I gave up on the search bar long ago.

Besides, if I had to guess again, I'd pick a $2 Euro.

Early morning thoughts..........

$5 = 5 dollars. Should it not be written 5$ to be correct when reading? Otherwise it's "dollar 5". Call me wrong.

No, not my coin either Loonie

Mexican peso coins back 125 or so years ago were large, silver coins and were the unit of currency kinda similar to our silver dollars so makes sense they also used the $ symbol.

What's the $ got to do with it? It's still a peso, not a dollar.

I see Iggy hasn't guessed yet, and I should probably reveal my coin a little later on...

Regardless of dollars or pesos, when I search for -"dollar", why does it eliminate "$", when the word "dollar", that I am searching for, does not appear on the page..

Now, let's see...
Using the Ge'ez calendar of Ethiopia, the coin is dated 2012, in Gregorian issued 2020, and yes, this coin is the scarcer of the three dates of N#16088.
To me, the dated questions go in the year slot, and the issued questions go in the Gregorian date slot.

I'm sure that Iggy is around somewhere
