A question about Mexican 5 centavos

Postby uthminsta » Tue Dec 11, 2012 1:40 am

Does anyone here know much about Mexican coins? Specifically, I'm looking for photos of 5 centavos from 1911 through 1913. I would like to SEE what the differences are here:
KM421. 5 CENTAVOS. nickel, 20mm
1911: narrow date, wide date...
1912: small mint mark, large mint mark...
1913: narrow date, wide date...

I have two specialist catalogs on Mexico but they had no images of this variety.

Hmmm... no pics of it. I have in front of me a 1913, and want to know which it is. They do list the varieties on the 11 and 12 but not the 13. And no pics. That is a good site though. Thanks, I am sure to use it in the future!

Frustrating! They do at least mention the varieties, right? What catalogs are they?

I have the Utberg "The Coins of Estados Unidos Mexicanos" 1963 which makes no mention of those varieties.

I also have the Hanks "The Comprehensive Catalog and Encyclopedia of Modern Mexican Coins" 1976. This one lists the 1911 narrow and wide dates and 1912 large and small mintmark. There are no photos.
