Lonely Planet review for Casa de Moneda
At the west end of the block is the historic Casa de Moneda, which now houses the Colección Numismática in most of its front two floors. The exhibits (with a bit of English) start with pre-Columbian exchanges of pots and lead chronologically to misshapen coins, the introduction of a centralized bank in 1880 and how the cute tree art on the current 500-peso coin was made in the late 1990s.
