fyimo Valued Member United States 245 Posts	Posted 01/16/2010 4:23 pm I have several peso's from Mexico that I have bought over the years especially when silver was way down and I was going through them today and I like the strike and design of this one and it's probably my best one.

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 01/16/2010 4:34 pm Very nice, I like the 8 reale coins the 8 reale is actually the denomination. This one appears to be EF but it could be low AU. the large peso's say Un ( one) peso on them they also use a different reverse, note the foot of the eagle and the snakes tail just to mention a couple.

jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/17/2010 1:09 pm Metalman, could you please explain your comment "I like the 8 reale coins the reale was actually a 10 D denomination." The "10D" is part of "10Ds 20Gs" which refers to the fineness of the silver. The denomination of the coin is 8 reales, the "real" (for silver) and the "escudo" (for gold) were the standard monetary units in Colonial Spain and the Mexican Republic.

jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/17/2010 4:45 pm I assumed it was an edit issue, I was trying to figure out the missing part of the sentence. Report this Post to the Staff
