  1. I was there about 2 weeks ago for the convention and visited the store also bought several pieces of these $100 pf coins, with a mintage of only 6000 pcs I guess they'll be hard to obtain in the future.
  2. I just bought a set of 5 mexican 1992 notes where the 5 notes have the same serial number: A0004399 they are pretty interesting
  3. This mexican $50 note has a reprint of half of the back on the front: Part of the second impression is missing on the back:
  4. It seems that the info about the release date was inaccurate, the coin was already exhibited and in the next days maybe it will be available, and I say maybe because its really hard to obtain them at the bank. Here is the image of the circulating coin: UNC coin: 700,000 pieces Matte coin: 6,000 pieces (in special presentation) And below the 2 oz. silver coin: PROOF 10,000 pieces (in wooden box) I think both are really nice. I'll try to obtain them in the next days in case someone is interested in purchasing any. Daniel http://www.geocities.com/mexicanbanknotes
  5. I collect world coins and banknotes, trading coins over the internet for the past 2 years has increased my collection a lot, now I have almost 3000 coins. Getting everything from everywere is nearly impossible, so I've decided to focus on commemorative euros, bimetallic & silver coins, and the rest just take it when its UNC.
  6. Got my first titanium coin: Austria 100 shilling 2001 Im very happy with it:
  7. Just received my 1st purchase from ebay, Mexico 5 pesos "Naval Training Ship Cuauhtemoc" Im very happy with it
  8. Thanks for your reply, I have asked a friend in the Netherlands and he sells them, the price 44 euro x 1000
  9. Are these the "Importa" coin holders that you are talking about? Do you know where can I buy the Hartberger self sealing 2x2's ? I have tried in the website but there isn't any dealer that sells them here in Mexico, and the price compared with the first ones in like 45% less, I need around 4,000 for my coins Maybe it would be better to ask a friend in The Netherlands to buy them for me? Daniel
  10. The current 100 pesos note from Mexico has the following poem by Nezahualcóyoltl: "Amo el canto del Zentzontle pájaro de cuatrocientas voces amo el color del jade y el enervante perfume de las flores pero amo más a mi hermano, el hombre" I will try to do a translation: "I love the singing of the Zentzontle (a local bird) bird of 400 voices I love the color of jade and the deep perfume of flowers but I love more my brother, the men"
  11. No, this one is the common design from 2002, those 2000 and 2001 are commemoratives, the ring brass has a brownish tone and it seems that the center has just a thin layer of alpaca (65%cu, 10%ni, 25 zn), because in some parts it has disappeared from the surface leaving just the nickel.
  12. The San Marino coin is beautiful, it reminds me to the old 500 lires..
  13. I have a fake $10 mexican bimetallic coin, it looks very similar to the original, but the eagle and the letters are more thick. I had another, but I mixed it with other original ones and paid something without knowing it... The small stores usually get many every day, but they give them again as change as they seem almost identical to the real ones. I wish I could post a picture of it, but I don't have a scanner
  14. Just to let you know that in fact there was a mistake in the issue date, the 4 coins will be released after december 31 2005 and not 2006 as it was told before.
  15. Thanks for the replies. I wanted to pay something to a dealer that accepts them, but I saw that there are new issues, so I wasn't sure if it would be accepted. The note is circulated and the signature is blue.
