Gold Mexican 10 Peso

Gold Mexican 10 Peso History: 

Mexican gold is a unique way to invest in precious metals due to the rarity and their metal content. The Mexican Peso is the 8^th most traded currency in the world and 3^rd largest from the Americas.  With a limited supply and low demand it is appealing for both sellers and investors alike.  Mexican pesos were first issued in 1921 to commemorate Mexico’s independence from Spain 100 years before. They were made at the Mexico City Mint.  Since Mexican pesos also contain copper they offer long-term durability.  Pesos were the purest gold coin produced during the 20^th century.
