according to the article "认准这只“鹰”——墨西哥银元的崛起" (Look for the Eagle -- the Rise of Mexican Dollar), The reason why Mexican dollars were also called "英洋" is that the coins were always transported by the English merchants to China.(因英人贩运居多,故名)--Baomi (talk) 09:14, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Baomi:, thank you very much for that piece of information and for your edits to this page, I'm currently busy doing a major re-write mostly concerning the status of Mexican pesos, so that link will be of great value. --Donald Trung (talk) 22:25, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
