I have found 2 varieties of Mexican 100 pesos 1988. Have they been described somewhere before?

Nice find with the "88" touching, thanks. I'll have to check my doubles to see if I also have both varieties.

Here two types of open M mint marks. The 2 are different
The first one has a odd looking two . I may open a post just for Mexican varieties.
The M are different too thick and thin lines
God I just love Mexican coins, keep my mind busy

Hello,
Long time collector. Just joined Numista - First time response in this BBS.
I have recently observed possible new variations of both thick and narrow 1988, 100 pesos.
Has anyone else seen these?
- (same coin) 88 is narrow and thick, second 8 a bit off
- '88 wide
- '88 narrow and thin - The second 8 is shorter than the first
- '88 narrow and thin (sloppy second 8)
- '88 narrow? second 8 looks to be dropping.

Can I use your images to set up a proper documentation? I don't even know the variant of my 1988 coin....

Hi Ole
Yes you can use anything I have. No problem . About a year ago I got mad to the point I packed up most of my coins and sold some. I am trying to get back up an running. I took everything out. My Mexico is still some what in boxes. I hope I can find the ones I did not put up here in the forum. It is slow going. , I think in 2 more years I will be back to normal.
Has anyone found the double eye glasses yet?.
edit still having issues putting images up.
It is, what it is, or is it.

Oh the 1982 I think is the 50 peso coin. I will try to find. On the 1988 the braille (for 100) is narrow and wide too.

Hi,
I have just made a change request to have the double eye glassesline deleted, since there is no proof of any....

I like collecting Mexican coins. My question (request) is regarding the 1982 50 Peso coin. I have collected several of these over the past 30 years but I have noticed something which I need explained. On the reverse of one of the coins, the writing Estados Unidos Mexicanos is larger on one coin than the other. I have had this verified by a coin dealer but he offered no reason as to why this is. Can anybody out there offer reasoning for this or do I have an error coin? Any info will help in solving my observation. Thank you, Simon (englandnative).

Just different dies, I suppose. I cannot show you any documentation of your variant, since I only know the two below.....
