Shortly after the Mexican Revolution, the newly formed Mexican Government issued their first Peso coin referred to as the "Caballito Peso" or as translated to English Pony or Small Horse Peso.

From 1572 (perhaps even earlier) and up to 1914, the silver content of the Mexican Peso (which during the Spanish Colonial era was known as the "Piece of Eight Reales") was held to a remarkably stable standard: 24.44 grams of pure silver.

It varies! For years Mexican silver items were often in the 40-75% silver content range.
