I would love to have some real silver Pesos. I've got real silver rubles... Of course, real silver holds it's value better than fiat money.

I knew a guy who worked where I was working at the time who traveled to Mexico about 5 times a year. He had family there. This was maybe 2002. I asked him about buying Onzas (Libertad) coins, which are one ounce Mexican silver coins. He said there were guys selling bucketloads of them a few blocks from where he used to stay, at his relatives home In Mexico City. They were about $6.

So I started giving him $200 at a time to buy and bring back the coins. You cannot import more than 25 (maybe 20) at a time without declaring them.

First time: “oops, I forgot”
second time: “oops, I forgot”
third “oops, I forgot” “
fourth “ “ “ “
fifth: “ “ “ (oh and they’re more like $7 now.
sixth: “oops”
seventh: Now they want $8 each.......

15th time: “Hey, they’re all gone”

never got one.

No, you don't. You lost them along with my guns last year when my pontoon boat capsized.
