The Gold Libertad’s obverse showcases Mexico’s national seal, featuring an eagle standing on a cactus carrying a snake in its beak. Above the seal, an inscription reads “ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS.” The 1 oz coin also has ten similar seals that are positioned around the central seal, representing Mexico’s provinces.
The reverse features the Victory Angel standing between two volcanoes named Popocatepeti and Iztaccuhuati after a pair of lovers from pre-Columbian lore. Inscriptions include the weight, purity, and year of issue.
The National Mint of Mexico (also known as the Casa de Moneda de Mexico) was established in 1535 and remains the oldest mint in the Americas. The Libertad was first produced in 1982; it was based on the Centenario gold coin that was struck from 1921 to 1947. The Libertad’s original design incorporated Winged Victoria (or Victory), the Mexican angel of independence, holding a laurel wreath and a broken chain to commemorate Mexico’s freedom from Spain.
