Regarding 11:08, the reverse of the Mexico gold 50 pesos coin features an eagle with a rattle snake in its beak and perched on a prickly pear cactus growing in the middle of Lake Texcoco. It is from the famous Aztec legend that when they saw these prophetic signs, then they would know it was the location to build their capital city Tenochtitlan which Spanish Conquistador Hernan Cortes would later rename it as Mexico City.

Congrats Sal....must a agree...the 20 and 50 are a DEAD HEAT (tie) in my book, two of the most Beautiful North American designs of all time!👏👏👏😊

Thanks for the summary Sal. I'm glad you did this one. I'm half way there & still need the big mamma one. Probably won't get that until (if) spot comes down.

Beautiful set Sal and a superb presentation! Thanks for sharing

Thanks for taking me to school on this series! Stunning coins indeed.

Congrats Sal! Nice set.

WOW, Nice set. I need to try to get this set.

Regarding 3:33, that $26 price for that Mexico gold 2½ pesos suggests that the spot gold price of gold at that time was around $431.28 per troy oz.

Now this is a beautiful set of gold coins indeed my friend. I think if I had to pick one it would be the one with the Aztec calendar on it. Very nice indeed my friend and as always thanks for sharing.

Congratulations,just as you say Sal they are very very nice indeed 😊 that's a collection i would be so proud to have in my collection,simply stunning very well done 👏

Very good sir. A nice set indeed. They look great and will look fantastic is a display. Cheers.

I bought myself two of the 50 pesos gold coins in 22' & 23" for under $2,200 each! They are re-strikes but I love those bullion coins. Big and good looking. Mexico knows how to design their coins!

Nice walk down memory lane! Love the Gold Peso. Break these out of storage!

Love when I’m searching KZfaq and an old Sal video pops up!

That was just a lovely set. It’s certainly deserves a display case to show it off. Also nice that it’s fractional gold which could come in handy in a pinch, especially given the low premiums. The Mexico mint ahhh, what beautiful coins they turn out. Wonder why the gold has monetary value, but the silver doesn’t?

Very nice complete re strikes !!! Can’t go wrong with the gold!!!

Congratulations on a awesome coin set

Beautiful you got the whole type set!!

Congrats on completing the same set as me Sal. I'm glad i scrubbed my nails before making MY video. Lol

Always nice to complete a set then sit back and look it over. I have an Aztec style coin in my safe. Very unique and unusual. Have to find it and describe to you. Got from Golden Eagle 5 yrs ago. I think it's over an ounze. DR.COOINZ !

Beautiful gold set, Sal. It would look great in a black Capital holder! I have a small 6 coin Sovereign set I'm putting into a black Capital, and I like it a lot.

Congrats sal!!!

A nice inspiration for me to complete my set.

Love mexican gold coins. Really love the 20 pesos. The 50 pesos is giant!

Very nice gold set!

Really Nice complète collection thanks

Awesome Collection I'm Still Working On Mine,Half Way Compete

Hi. Thanks for sharing. Very nice!

There has been some debate that the bird on these coins may be a Kara Kara rather than an eagle. In fact, many refer to the Kara Kara as a Mexican eagle down here close to Mexico.

so sweet love the set !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice looking coins. Coins from the Banco De Mexico are certainly in a buyers market.

Some of the most beautiful coins out there

Starting my collection, have the 2.5 and the 20 so far.

Boom !! The 20 and 50 peso coins are awesome😎

I had to take a pause at the moment when he showed uo the price of the Dos y Medio coin!!!!! I almost got a heartattack 😬 now it is 4 years later!!!

Nice set have to work on mine

That is a cool set Sal... That's more gold than I own.. haha

Great vid Oldy but goody

Sure beats nickel and penny collections. Very nice indeed!

#34 thumbs up my friend! Very nice set you have there and congrats on completing it! 😊 I am one coin short and I bet you can guess which one! LOL.

The 20 and 50 Pesos are my favorites. It can be argued that the Mexican gold restrikes are the first bullion coins. After all, the Mexican restrikes were meant to be bank reserves rather than circulating coins. Before the Krugerrand, the only way to stack gold is to buy Mexican Pesos, Austrian 100 Coronas, and French 20 Francs. Similar to Mexican Pesos, the Austrian Coronas and French Francs are also restrikes. Your Mexican gold Peso Set would look great in a Capital Plastics holder. Of course, you prefer your coins in the original 2X2 flips.

nice collection

I just bought a few gold 2 peso at $135 each .

Just a point of clarification that might be of interest. And that is the fact that it is possible to possess a 1947 50-Peso, Mexican, Centenario gold coin that WAS a part of the country's ORIGINAL production in 1947. Some 309,000 such coins were minted that year. On the other hand, MILLIONS of "restrikes" have been minted in certain years thereafter; the same being all backdated to the year "1947."

nice set, I want one too but ony originals. Got the 20 pesos already and looking for a 50 pesos non restrike.

I'm salivating over your Pesos Collection WOW! I had no idea they were restrikes! Questions: Do you know why/when the Mexican Mint began restriking?

Hey Sal, what would you recommend purchasing 2 pesos coins in quantity to do a quarter oz. Or buy a quarter oz gold eagle ?

The 50 Peso restrike inspired a comment in an Iamgogi video which subsequently was the birth of Colonic Stacker.

How much the price of 10 peso Estados Unidos Mexicanos conis Sir?

Beautiful collection, I have the 5 pesos 10 pesos and 20 pesos, I need to save money to buy the other coins to complete my set lol You just need one more, the one peso, that's the hard one because is not to many, and cost little more than the 2 and 2 1/2 pesos..

Sal, the 1945's aren't restrikes they are original minted coins. 1947 and up are all restrikes. I'm not sure if I missed that on your video. I just had my set graded and conserved (non restrikes). I know how you feel about graded coins.😃

Beautiful set, the coins have a great design and $26 for the 2,5 Peso is an awesome price. There is also a 200 Peso Bicentenario coin, is it also part of this series ?

The more I think about it, I'd like to get another gold pesos to go with my lonely 2.5 Dos. It's looking kinda sad by itself among the gold maples and Brits.

I have one of the 60 peso gold coin

Hi Sal, I recently saw a Mexican 1 peso gold coin. Is that coin part of your collection or part of another pedigree in the Mexican coinage?

Great!

Nice Sal. I have no gold but I believe a gold Libertad. would be my first choice. I will trade you your pesos shown for ones that I have.

Nineteenth! Hi Sal. A rare correction. The Heraldic Eagle is always the obverse of Mexican coins. The 20 peso has the newer eagle design on its obverse. The New Libertads have all the older heraldic eagles, surrounding the current eagle, on the obverse of the coin. Another thing, you need at least five of the 50 peso coins for a decent collection!!!! That would be over 6oz. of gold. *:-)*

Nice coins. 👍 thanks for shoutout fyi i know its Levi but said like Levy. 😀 thankyou Im mad Golden State did you that way. Your coin should be in there

Any way to tell a restrike from the original?

Muy Bonito 👌

Very nice Sal. :) Excellent Mexican also. Viva La Raza

I have a ways to go, but I do have the 2 peso, 2 1/2 peso and just last week received a 5 peso. All are Sweet !

What’s the current value of the Peso with the Aztec Calendar?

Sup Mister SM and everyone

I love my 50 peso Gold piece............HEAVY !

Where is the 1870-1905 1gold peso Second Republic coin?

Ahuevo estan chingonas! Just got a 20 Pesos

Just bought a dos pesos they are going for 110$+

How do you tell the difference between restrike and original?

Sal Ive never held a peso so I just might have to buy some from you , I mean Apmex

I love the 20 and 50 peso coins

Nice Mexican gold! Do you have any Mexican “junk” silver?

Sir I have an one mexican coin 50 Pesos Oro puro 37.5gr .Since 1821 -1947 can I sell this coin. I found this coin in kuwait

@2:20 those are $186-$235 on Amazon. Good investment @ $60 in 5 years, and $26 for 2.5 peso. Woo hoo

🤜

Id like to have a burlap sack of those 50 peso coins.

For those who don't know Hidalgo is our George Washington, the father of our country.

Were you working in the garden right before this video, Sal? I think you forgot to clean under your fingernails. LOL

SAWHEEEET!!!!!

notification squad

Very nice, but very pricey

It'd be a numismatic crime to do so, but please Sal, find a nice old wooden box and dump all your coins and rounds, and your girlfriend's pearl necklace, and all your paper money into it, and then bury it, then start a video, and dig it up. It would be as close as anyone ever gets to experiencing what it would be like to open a true pirate treasure. Yo ho ho and have a bottle of rum in there too. FULFILL OUR DREAMS SAL. IT'S ABOUT THE FEELS.

Before you make a video showing close ups of your finger tips clean under your nails and them trim them. Gross!!
