Thanks! -EditorI would like to bring to the readers' attention a book that was presented at the US Mexican Numismatic Association Convention in Scottsdale, AZ.Allan Schein: Mexican Beauty / Belleza Mexicana - Un Peso Caballito. Salt Lake City, 2014. 238 pp., full color with hundreds of coin photos, text in English and Spanish.Mexico's Caballito ("little horse") peso was issued in five consecutive years, from 1910 to 1914. It is considered to be one of the most beautiful coin designs of the modern era.This book contains comprehensive information on the coin's designer, French medalist Charles Pillet, its design elements and numismatic history, along with valuable information for collectors on date and die varieties, values, grading, toned coins, counterfeits, and more.The book is bilingual, translated to Spanish by Mexican coin specialist Roberto del Bosque.While collecting coins from the year of birth of his father, 1914, the author Allan Schein came across the Caballito Peso and fell in love with the issue (despite the fact that the year 1914 is the highly priced key date of the series). Years of intensive research and study have resulted in this ultimate collector's guide.This is also what I personally see to be the greatest asset of this work: it is a perfect combination of historical background for numismatists interested in Mexican coins or world crowns in general on one side and a detailed insight into the series for the specialized collector on the other.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please note: All books are shipped via USPS Media Mail for your economy.Thanks for visiting this page.
