Because of the many varieties in the Morelos coinage, a book could be written on this one subject alone. (His monogram, SMo, is above the '2 R'.) The majority of his coinage was copper in the form of IOUs to be redeemed after the War of Independence. I can't speak to the authenticity of your coin, but I have become suspect to all cast copper Morelos coinage. To me, the educational (historic) value of that coin far exceeds its numismatic value.Thanks for the post.

Wow...this thread is still alive. That was quick! agree that the historic value is all it's worth. I checked a few years ago, and found that it was worth only a few dollars at best. No matter, I keep it anyway.

The location I'm in does happen to be a mission area , and I've found some 1906 and 1917. I really would like to find maybe some late 1800 coins. To add to my collection that will make me very happy any thing even 1899 lol
