Less than 1/10 as many 50 Pesos were struck as $20 St. Gaudens just in that decade alone. If you include the total mintage of $20 gold pieces across their 80 year production, the total population of Mexican 50 Pesos is a mere 3% of that of the $20 gold pieces. With premiums on uncirculated $20 gold pieces typically topping 50%, the opportunity for long-term premium growth in the Mexican 50 Pesos coins is undeniable. |

As contemporaries, roughly half as many Mexican 20 pesos were minted as $10 Indians. By including the Indian's predecessor, the $10 Liberty (minted from 1843-1907), the total mintage of $10 gold pieces increases to just over 56 million coins. With roughly 1/10 the mintage, the comparatively low premium on the Mexican 20 Pesos is made especially attractive when considering the 50% premium normally carried by $10 gold pieces in uncirculated condition. As a final note of clarification, the information above does not include re-strike versions of both the 50 Pesos and 20 Pesos. Both coins were heavily re-struck from 1944-1975, typically carrying the date 1947 in the case of the 50 Pesos, and 1959 in the case of the 20 Pesos. These re-strike coins are bullion items that carry no historical potential as discussed in this commentary. |
