First, a little bit of history. At the conclusion of the Mexican civil war, the Peso was put into good use. Having been devalued, some Craftsman began to elt down the coins and make some big, solid silver rings. These ring should have more value than the peso.
In the 1940’s and 1950’s, the motorcycle clubs of North America would come down to the Mexican border and throw around five u s dollars purchase their own souvenir rings for their bike clubs.
Rings made of silver and brass which made them doubly useful as a knuckle-duster.
