Do Pesos expire
I am going to Los Cabos and have some Pesos from 1987. Are they still good? I have one bill that is for 10000. I am hoping it is good!!

Your "old" pesos are worthless.
Light a Cuban cigar with the $10,000. bill, lol. M |
"Expire" isn't exactly the reason though. Mexico changed currency to the Nuevo Peso quite awhile ago. Yours from that long ago would be the old money.
|
Before the change these pesos were running about4,000 to a dollar so eventhen not worth much. You could go to the bank witha bit over $250 US leaving with a million pesos! A instant millionare! LOL

The interbank rate today went over 11.5, and when the US Fed raise US interest rates yet again at the end of June, we'll all be ATM/CC wealthy here.
Unfortunately, those with US stocks and bonds, as long term investments, are getting hammered. M |
Thanks for your responses. I went from welthy to poor real quick!!! CC
|
oops, I spelled wealthy wrong!! I guess I was tired and upset. I called an international bank and was told I could use the old pesos only in Mexico. I am now confused. cc
|
Old pesos never die. They just fade away. ((*))
|
Didn't they drop 3 zeros when they went to the Nuevo Peso? That means we're only taking about 10 bucks anyways, right?
|
I really sent one ($10,000. old peso note) to a B of A VP, and she lit a Cubano with same.

Okay, You are taking away all of my hope!! Thanks, CC
|
You won't know until you take them to a bank in Mexico. We had some old money from London and had to go to a bank and they exchanged it.
