What an incredible journey through history and numismatics you've just shared, @thebighigg! Your connection to Mexican coins and their history is captivating. It’s amazing how a single coin, like your 1905 piece, can carry so much significance—not just for its material value, but for the stories it holds and the hands it’s passed through over the decades.

The tale of the Mexico City Mint is equally fascinating. Its foundation on the remnants of Aztec history highlights the layers of culture and conquest embedded in every coin it produced. From pieces of eight to modern Libertads, the artistry and legacy of those coins are truly unmatched.

Your coin’s origin story—coming from a thoughtful dealer who saved treasures for you—makes it even more special. It’s clear that, while its condition shows its age, its value goes far beyond what money can measure. Collecting coins is as much about the personal journey as it is about the history, wouldn’t you agree?
