Hi! Can someone please tell me if I can use these coins in Mexico? Sorry the photos aren't great, it was the best I could do!

I brought these coins home after a trip with my family in the 80s, I hope I can exchange them for some churros on my upcoming trip to Cozumel!

please let me know if they'll be accepted as legal tender.

thanks!

  3. Hi there!

    Sorry, but you can´t use it. Only you can sell to a collector.

    In Mexico we use the pesos, your coins are too old. This are the actually coins.

  4. Sorry, You can't use those coins.

    If I were you I just save them as a Souvenir from your trip back in the *8o's.

    if you are not found of them try selling them to a collector you probably get a lot of more money from them.

    BY the way a CHURRO will only cost you about 25 cents.

  5. i am sorry no but since i am a mexican your in luck jk (but i am really a mexican) but anyways if you are going into a hotel they will trade your money for mexican money or if your not well now that i live in us and i visit in mexico a lot well thay still take amercian money

  6. no you can´t, Mexico changes the print in their currency all the time, new bills and new coins comes out every time, besides those coins have a fraction of its cost of todays peso.



    just save them as a souvenir
