Pancho Villa's Money

NFT Collection

Created by the Pancho Villa Institute. Each token is unique and grants ownership of the real-world historical bank note it sponsors.

The real-world bank notes were minted in 1913 by revolutionary Francisco "Pancho" Villa to pay for supplies and soldiers in his army during the Mexican revolution. American banks in Texas colluded with this by accepting it as currency, on Pancho's guarantee. Read the story of Pancho Villa.

Own a piece of history.

The legend says that he would sometimes risk capture by walking openly through the streets of Chihuahua to distribute money to the poor.

"On Christmas day, 1913, he gathered the poor of Chihuahua together and gave them each 15 pesos. By such actions he became the hero and savior of the underclass."
