You need to provide a denomination and an estimate of the grade. All you've done is tell us you have a Mexican coin dated 1988 your coin could be worth less than a penny or several hundred dollars, there's no way to know without the denomination and grade.
Runaway inflation during the 1980s reduced the value of the peso to almost nothing. Mexico was forced to withdraw its old currency and replace it with "new pesos" in 1992 and 1993. Unfortunately the old pesos traded at about 10,000 to the dollar so 1000 old pesos are worth around a dime.
Due to a 1992 monetary reform in Mexico that made 1000 old Pesos equal to 1 New Peso the 1988 5000 Pesos is worth about .50 in the U.S. (1 Peso = ~10c U.S.). You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
It's unlikely to be worth very much assuming that it came from circulation. In that case you were correct to use the term "gold colored" because it's made from a brass alloy. Mexico suffered from hyperinflation during the 1980s and was forced to revalue its currency in 1992-93. Old pesos such as yours were exchanged at the rate of 1000 to 1, so your 5000-peso coin is equivalent to only 5 modern pesos. Exchange rates fluctuate but as of 03/2009 5 current pesos would be worth a total of less than 35 U.S. cents.

You have what are known as "old pesos". In January 1993, the Mexican government introduced the new peso, worth 1,000 of the old pesos and divided into 100 centavos, to simplify foreign exchange. Current exchange rates are based on these "new pesos". Your old pesos have become essentially worthless for exchange. You'll find them in coin dealer miscellaneous foreign coin bins for 5/$1.00 As far as the exchange rate, I believe your total of 1660 old centavos would be roughly 4 cents US. Even if you had a reasonable total amount for exchange, if is impossible to exchange coins from another country.
