Just found 1913 50 centavos (mexican) is it silver?My guess is yes.Same size as halves.

Even if it is not it is still a keeper , given the historic time period it came from

Sorry folks got excited.Research says .800.This was minted during the revolution some speculate Pancho Villa may have ordered these made.It's quite a thrill there were 3-40% in same roll.
