jtryka Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 I'm trying to get a set of those pesos among other things. Well, the same dealer is going to be at another local show in 3 weeks, so if you want, send a list of the dates you need and the prices you'd pay and I'd be happy to pick some up for you. As I recall, they had a lot of nice unc. ones from the 1930s and 1940s for prices ranging from $5 to $9 (and when they tally it up they usually take a little off too!). Just let me know.

Did that guy happen to have any old mexican coppers from the 1830's-1840's? Or any of the old mexican style silvers? (liberty capped obverse) It's hard to find that kinda stuff around here at a reasonable price anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(liberty capped obverse) It's hard to find that kinda stuff around here at a reasonable price anymore. I didn't really look for coppers since I am mainly into silver. I know he has some older 8-reales going back to the 1700s, but those are not unc and not cheap! They may be good prices for what they are, but they were between $200 and $800 which was more than I wanted to spend on a Mexican coin right now. If there is something you are really looking for, let me know and I'll take a look. This dealer is based in Kalamazoo I believe and tends to come to all the montly local shows.

Ooof, yeah I don't think I wanna spend 200-800 on them lol. I was looking for moderately priced liberty capped silver, around 20-30 dollars and old mexican coppers like the one below, hand hammered copper is nifty!
