By face value, practically nothing. Fifty Mexican cents (which is the translation of "cincuenta centavos") is 0.5 Mexican pesos, but the peso has since been redefined since 1983; what used to be called 1,000 pesos is now called 1 peso. Therefore, the coin's face value is 0.0005 Mexican pesos, which is less than a hundredth of a United States cent. I wouldn't expect an ordinary 1983 coin to have any special value to collectors, but I'm no numismatist.

About $6 or so in scrap silver if worn, about $10 if in better shape. It is a common date and is 72% pure silver.
