Local Coin Show Finds 10/12/2021

in #silvergoldstackers2 years ago

Gram by Gram, I have been working on stacking a Troy-Ounce of Gold. My goal was to find a few hundred US dollars worth of Gold, in fractional, Mexican Gold (90%) Pesos. Only one Dealer, of about fifty, had what I was looking for.
IMG_4561.jpg This Gold Dos Pesos weighs (0.0482 Troy Ounce), almost, as much as a US Gold Dollar (0.0483) It takes twenty-one of either to make a Troy Ounce of Gold. (Actually, about 1.0122 T. oz).

This, 2.5, Dos y Medio Pesos (0.0603) at, almost, 1.876 grams and the Dos, at 1.499 grams, fattens the stack up by 3.375 grams. About 11% of the 31.1 Gram/Troy Ounce goal.

For some reason, these Gold Coins only commanded, about a 3% premium. Thanks for looking and stack them if you like them. Check out #silvergoldstackers for interesting coin articles.

I have only one of these small Mexican gold coins on hand and they are indeed tiny but lovely. I got it in a lucky Coin show prize draw years ago from a local coin club.

Thank again for looking and commenting, @kerrislravenhill. Yes, they show up, occasionally, at the Local Coin Shop, usually at a very low (like 3%) premium.
