Question on Mexican Gold Peso coins

Does the MO mint mark add significant value to a 1945 2 peso coin?

    No

    Not sure why you are asking this. ALL 1945 2 Peso gold have Mo mintmarks.

    Also note that is the restrike year, so the coin may have been minted later.

    Actually they don't. Not on both sides.

    Correct, they have one or two mintmarks, but all have it. AS far as I understand the one with mint mark under the Eagle is rarer and maybe more expensive, but I have never seen sales so I do not know the price difference.

    Well, you didn’t say that! Indeed all 2 Peso gold have ONE Mo mintmark. And some have TWO, one on each side.

    That was some “midnight minting” fun somebody was having. As @Abuelo mentioned, none have traded publicly, so they have no recorded price yet.

    As a point of reference, someone offered me one once in a NGC slab (forgot the grade, but it was MS) for $2000. I didn’t buy it. This was back when that coin was thought to be unique, which it no longer is thought to be.
