Mexico 1982 20 centavos rev DSLR.jpg

The stress of inflation in the 1980's as Mexico squandered her oil bonanza caused many coin types to come and go. This type was introduced in 1974 and lasted until 1983, when it was superseded by a bronze type (KM 491) which lasted only until 1984. Francisco Madero appears on the obverse.

Recorded mintage: 286,855,000.

Specification: 3 g, copper-nickel, 20 mm diameter, reed3ed edge.

Catalog reference: KM 442.
