hello steemians! happy memorial day! today’s silver post is of my one and only 1959 mexican 5 pesos carranza coin. i have to admit i did not know anything of the man in this portrait. once i did a little research i found he helped write the mexican constitution and lead the mexican revolution. the silver weight on these are .41 troy ounces and are 72% silver. do you have any of these?80D81F91-D5CF-4A9C-9B33-CF4B41CA8EB7.jpeg

Cool coin. If it is 72% silver what is the other part? Is it part nickle or copper?

Happy Memorial day!

Nice coin! I don't have any Mexican silver yet... next in my list I think! E x

mexican silver is really cheap, i like going to apmex and a local shop near me to get mine.
let me know once you make your 1st purchase.

A fine coin, reminds me to shore up my tiny Mexican Libertad Stack.

i love mexican silver! so cheap to buy and the coins have some history on it.
