Abstract
This study attempts to provide as complete a vision as possible, of the shipment of Mexican silver belonging to peninsular Spaniards, in the years between the independence of Mexico and the first law regulating the expulsión of Spaniards. In order to comply with this objective we attempt to respond to the following questions: How, when, how much, to where, and through where, was the shipment of millions of Mexican pesos, owned by Spaniards, carried out? Lastly, why was the silver destined to certain European cities?Downloads
