I have a few, one of the very few countries I collect in BU. I like the designs and history and for the most part they are "inexpensive" although "under-valued" would be more accurate. Once I get my camera software figured out I am going to be posting some photos.

I really like the pre-1830 coins of Mexico. I think the two year types of Iturbide (1822-23) and the one year hooked-neck eagle silver coins (1824) are really undervalued. Actually, pretty much all the 18th century silver is undervalued I think
I have 3 sets of the 100 Peso State Coins I am putting together to collect the series. I would like to keep one and sell the other 2 at the end of the series. I someone wants a complete set get ahold of me in 2005. Kind of a cool set.
