Still not bad.....not bad at all. 8-)

Coingrats......and get back over there to work on your "modern coin world collection"

Here is a nice sheet for rates....also a good place to dump. Shameless bump for a service I use myself. ;)

Hmmm... the largest coin denomination post 1991 is the 100 Peso (in 2003-2005), that would be 40 of these to be 4000 Pesos; at 5/$1 should have been $8. (but still a screamin' deal).

Did he give you a deal better than the 5/$1?

20 pesos (core 92.5%) 1993-95
50 pesos (core 92.5%) 1993-95
