Hi, I'm actually rather new to coin collecting. I from the States, but have lived in Mexico now for quite a number of years.

I currently live in Leon, Guanajuato.

Is anyone aware of a coin dealer in Guanajuato State?

I know that at market places you can come across a stall or two where the guy buys gold and silver and might have a couple of coins on hand. (I actually came across a guy with a 1733 8 reales by this method.) But, I´m trying to find out if there's anything larger than a guy with a handful of coins around here.

to the forum. In your area, no. But Harrison trades with dealers and individuals in the Mexico City area. PM him and he might have some contacts.

Again, welcome.

I've dealt with Duane Douglas in DF. He runs the ElMundoDeLaMoneda internet. Very interesting auction lots.

The Numismatic Society of Mexico will celebrate its next coin and paper money convention next September 28 through October 1, 2011 at the same location: Hotel Del Prado, Salón Versalles, Av. Marina Nacional # 399, Col. Anzures, México, D.F. 11300. Tels: 52608909, 52606284. Fax: 52606669.

I wish I can attend this one.

I have also dealt with Duane Douglas in Mexico City. He is a very stand up guy and a wealth of information and knowledge.
I would also be very careful with a 1733 Pillar found in the stall of a gold/solver broker. Very commonly counterfeited coin.

YellowO, welcome!!

I'm sure glad to have someone nearby, all things being relative. ;)

Send me a PM and I'll give you the details of another little hot spot I know of in SMA.
