Product Description:
First minted in 1921 to mark Mexico's 100th anniversary of independence from Spain. They were minted up until 1947.
The history of the Bank of Mexico and its numismatic division, La Casa de Moneda de México, unfolds a saga spanning centuries, reflecting Mexico's evolution. Founded in 1535, La Casa de Moneda stands as one of the Americas' oldest mints, predating many European counterparts. Its inception aligns with the Spanish crown's efforts to stabilize finances in the New World. Through time, this institution, now part of the Bank of Mexico, has safeguarded Mexico's monetary legacy, producing iconic coins like the Libertad series.
Today, as the exclusive issuer of legal tender coins in Mexico, the Bank of Mexico upholds La Casa de Moneda's heritage, striking coins that embody Mexico's diverse cultural fabric and steadfast commitment to precious metals.
