I don't know whether this is properly in this section or the copper bullion section, but current Mexican 20 and 50 centavo coins are 92% copper and approaching parity (bullion value = face value) if they haven't already. I forget what the 8% remainder is, but I know part of it is aluminum.

I'll be sure to keep a look out for those.The coin dealer near by is pretty friendly, maybe I can get I deal. If not, pale then I change my mind about him being friendly! Maybe

I had to look it up to double check, but I thought they had a little nickel in them too. 92% copper, 6% aluminum, 2%nickel. These are easily found near any border. Depending on copper price and exchange rates they may be a good copper play in the near future, and of course, no melt ban.

Yeah, I think they will do nicely.

Also, those old cupro-nickel One Pesos from the 70s and 80s are something to look at.

I actually have found 5 and 10 pesos in the junk bin; luckily, someone I work with has family in Mexico so I am selling them to her at a 10% discount of the converted value
