The fractional-ounce Mexican Libertad Silver Coins were the first additions to the series following the 1982 debut of the 1 oz bullion version. From 1982 to 1990, the 1 oz coin was the only option in the series. Starting in 1991, the Mexican Mint offered 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/10 oz, and 1/20 oz coins as well. Further additions were made in 1996 with the 2 oz and 5 oz coins, and in 2008 with the 1 Kilo coin.

Obverse

On the obverse face of 2020 Mexican Libertad 1/2 oz Silver coins, you will find the image of Winged Victory in the foreground and the mountain peaks at Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl in the distance. The mountain peaks are named after an ancient Aztec love story and you can tell the two apart by their shape. Popocatepetl is to the right, while Iztaccihuatl is the mountain to the left with numerous peaks. Iztaccihuatl translates as white woman and reverse to the snow-capped peaks that take on the appearance of a sleeping woman. When viewed from east to west, the mountains peaks resemble the head, chest, knees, and feet of a sleeping woman.

Winged Victory is the statue figure in the foreground. Inspired by the goddess Victoria and known as the Angel of Independence, this 22-foot tall statue is depicted exactly as it is seen in real life in Mexico City on the Mexican Independence Victory Column.

Reverse

The reverse side of all 2020 Mexican Libertad 1/2 oz Silver Coins features the modern coat of arms. The national emblem depicts a powerful golden eagle on its cactus perch as it fights with a serpent in its talons and beak.
