Mexican Gold Coins for Gold Investors

Shortly after Columbus discovered the 'New World,' vast amounts of gold were discovered in Mexico. Once turned into coins, Spanish fleets transported the gold coinage through the Gulf of Mexico to deliver to the King and Queen of Spain. Often, these fleets encountered danger, running into hurricanes, losing ships and the precious cargo.

In 1810, Miguel Hidalgo declared independence from the rule of Spain, although full independence of Mexico was not achieved until 1821. From 1821 to 1917, Mexico went through considerable political upheavals. The coinage remained based on Spanish coin types until the adoption of decimal currency in 1864 based on the peso.

Some of the most beautiful gold coins in the world are the Mexican Gold Peso Coins. The Mexican 50 Peso coin (also known as "Centenario") is definitely the most striking one.

The 50 Peso coin was issued from 1921 to 1947 honoring the 100th anniversary of Mexico's independence from Spain. "El Angel de la Independencia" (the Angel of Independence) is pictured on the coin, with a laurel wreath in her right hand and broken chains in her left. The 1821 on the lower left commemorates the year of Mexico's independence. The date on the right indicates year of mintage. The reverse of the coin depicts the Mexican coat of arms, a Mexican golden eagle devouring a snake while perched atop a cactus.

When Americans regained the right to own gold bullion in 1974, Mexican 50 Pesos, quickly become one of the gold bullion industry's standard bearers. It is the ideal coin for gold buyers who want low premium gold coins, coins that have small markups over spot.

Pre-Decimal British Coin Set $49.98 The British are particular about their coins and so far, they have declined to join the Euro. Many think back fondly to the time when a pound equalled 240 pence, not 100. All of the circulated coins in this collection were minted before February 15, 1971, the day the currency was decimalized. Their denominations are the same as when Britannia ruled the waves. Mounted and framed in wood under glass, this set measures 6 1/2" x 8 3/4" and includes a sixpence, farthing, shilling, penny,halfpenny, half crown, florin, silver threepence and 12-sided brass threepence.

Decimal Day by Humphrey, L. Egaire [Paperback] $103.56 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Decimal Day (15 February 1971) was the day the United Kingdom and Ireland decimalised their currencies. Under the old currency of pounds, shillings and pence, the pound was made up of 240 pence (denoted by the letter d for Latin denarius and now referred to as old pence ), with 12 pence in a shilling and 20 shillings (denoted by s for Latin solidus) in a pound. Especially in an era before widespread computer use, monetary calculation, such as adding up sums of money, was more complicated than with a decimal currency. Tourists were also confused by coins such as the halfcrown (worth two shillings and sixpence, or one eighth of a pound). The loss of value of the currency meant that the penny, with the same diameter as the U.S. half dollar, was of relatively slight value (the farthing, worth onequarter of an old penny, had been demonetised in 1960).
