GREETINGS FROM MEXICO

  Adri�n Gonz�lez Salinas writes: "I know that several E-Sylum
  readers have an interest in Mexican numismatics, so I'd like to
  inform you about the latest Sociedad Numism�tica de M�xico's
  journal called "El Bolet�n".  It is a commemorative issue and
  contains articles which appeared since its foundation (1952).

  In words of Jos� Antonio B�tiz V�zquez (Delegate of
  Publications):  "The Numismatic Society of Mexico, A.C.
   publishes this anthology of articles taken from its 'Bolet�n
  Numism�tico' as a testimony and in memory of its first fifty
  years of existence and as an acknowledgment to its numerous
  membership who during this period participated with their
  knowledge, having put it in writing and thus, contributed to
  the study and dissemination of numismatics.  It is a select
  group of nineteen articles by different authors covering the
  history of  'Bolet�n' with diverse subjects, historical stages
  and criteria of interest and interpretation."

  These are the characteristics and contents of "El Bolet�n" -
