Hello,

Is here anybody who could explain me what they were? Coinage of some provinces, or what? I am asking because I would like to split them similarly to other countries in the new country list. <:D

Aguascalientes - Peso (1915)
Chihuahua - Peso (1913-1915)
Durango - Peso (1914)
Estado de Mexico - Peso (1915-1916)
Guerrero - Peso (1914-1917)
Jalisco - Peso (1915)
Morelos - Peso (1915-1916)
Oaxaca - Peso (1915-1916)

So they are different states?

States is what the the catalog uses to define them.

Hello, i'm no expert in this topic, but i think i can provide some useful information.

In the revolution of 1910-1920 , many different factions fought first against dictator Porfirio Diaz, and then against the usurper Victoriano Huerta, many different Leaders (A good example is Pancho Villa) created their own forces to fight Huerta's Army, and then to fight for the power,then, for different reasons (as to pay soldiers, to get more funding, etc...)they made their own coinage, so even in one state you can find very different issues, the most recognized are the Villista's and Zapatista's ones, but there are many others, even "misterious" coins which can't be tracked to any leader.

The easiest way to classify them will be by the Catalog of Krause (North American coins) wich divides them by state, outside México and the US it is very rare people to collect them
Ok, thank you!! Solved.
