The second smallest of all Mexican denominational gold was minted at the oldest mint in North America and offers collectors a cost effective means of investing in precious metals. The Mexico Gold Peso was produced by the Mexico City Mint and issued by the Bank of Mexico from 1918-1948. Most 2.5 gold pesos were minted with the restrike year of 1945. The Mexican Mint was established in 1535 by the Spanish viceroy Antonio de Mendoza by a decree from the Spanish Crown to create the first Mint in the Americas.

The Random Date Mexico Gold 2 1/2 Pesos is an efficient way to diversify holdings of Gold Bullion. This small bullion coin from Mexico is appealing to investors because gold used contains a copper alloy that makes it very durable and it is approximately 20% larger than the American Gold Eagle.
