Mexican 20 Peso 1918

[Roy]

Purchased on a whim 'cos I liked it!

Any comments, links, info please?

It seems that a lot of these coins are restrikes (1959) but this one appears to be an early date of issue.

I paid 5% over (a fairly high) spot.

Cheers,

Roy

Very nice coin, did you get it from coininvest? I was eyeing them up also and saw they had quite a few. I ended up ordering Queens Beasts, gold and silver from another company and spent more than what the 20 peso would have cost. Ironically decided not to order the 20 because of price.

Great choice for an impulse buy, 20 peso is one of the most beautiful coins going imo. 1918 is a nice date as opposed to the restrike 1959 that I have. I paid a higher premium on mine too so a good buy I would say.
