Best Answer

The Mexican Un Peso was struck in (10%) .100 silver from 1957-1967 by the Mexico City Mint - the oldest mint in North America.

These coins weigh 16 grams and contain 1.6 grams of pure silver.

To figure out the dollar amount of silver in each coin, divide the price of silver by 31.1 and multiply by 1.6.

It depends on the condition it's in. It may vary anywhere from $10.00 to $30.00 US dollars (June 2011)... Of course it will vary with the price of silver
