A friend showed me a 1968 Mexican Olympic coin today. He said it was silver. I believe it was a 25 peso coin. Have any of you ever seen one of these?

There are several "varieties" of it, but most I would say are worth around $12 bucks. Most go on ebay for $10-$14 once you count shipping as well.
Silver content alone puts it at around $9. |
MOVING SALE!!! Selling Copper Cents 1.4 shipped - in limited quantities PM me and we'll talk. |
