I love this 1979 Silver Onza (Type II). Mainly because like many Mexican coins and Libs, Onza and Pesos they were designed and crafted to tell a story of history. AMPEX has it a decent price. I am buying a few more.


  • Pros
  • Value (low premium over spot)
  • Attractive Design
  • Collectible (lower mintage)
  • Bottom Line
  • Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
