Answer
Hi Ricardo, Collector value of a coin depends on denomination (face value), date, number minted and condition of a coin, including amount of wear, any dents, scratches or cleaning as well as collector demand for it.
2 1/2 CENTAVOS 1880 AL 1898, If you list these by date, I may be able to give you a range of value estimates.
1 CENTAVO 1898, collector value may be worth about .50 with heavy wear to around $2 with moderate wear to maybe $5 with light wear.
2 CENTAVOS 1880, .50, $6, $10 in same conditions as listed above.
5 PESOS 1927, $12.50, $16, $22.50.
5 CENTAVOS 1918, none were made in 1918.
1/2 CENTAVO 1872, $1.50, $12, $22.50.
20 CENTAVOS 1921 AL 1925, .10, $1, $3 each.
1 PESO 1915 AL 1922, If you list these by date, I may be able to give you a range of value estimates.
10 CENTAVOS 1923 AL 1925, .15, .75, $1.50 each.
2000 PESOS 1993, $2, $5, $17.
1 PESO 1933, .20, .75, $1.75.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
