I am a strong buyer of these in 65 and above slabbed all day long. They are underpriced. Here is a PCGS 65.

I give away money. I collect money.

    I really do not see them offered much... I think they are quite attractive and worth buying

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Your picture shows the Mo mintmark, but can you tell me what the M on my 1955 5 peso stands for? Also, you probably know ... the 5's - I haven't seen a higher denomination - have on the edge INDEPENDENCIA Y LIBERTAD. Love those edge inscriptions. Hey, thanks.

    Sorry, I am not as familiar with the series you asked about.

    I thought Mexico City was always 'Mo'...?

    Usually, but not always. There are numerous types which use just the "M".

    Thanks, I really appreciate that. I like the look of the large M and small o. Are there many other-than-a-single-letter mintmarks? I have a French 20 franc with BB (Strasbourg), where the B's look double-struck. And there are those French symbols.... Thanks again. All of you folks are great!

    I know the U.S. has Carson City (CC) mintmark, but i'm not sure if there are others.
