Design Mexican Libertad 2022

The Mexican Libertad 5 troy ounce silver coin is loved by investors and collectors alike for its unique design full of historical references and great details. The obverse of the coin features an image of the "Winged Victory", the Mexican angel of independence. This angel is inspired by the Column of Independence, which can be found in Mexico City. Behind the angel are two well-known Mexican volcanoes Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl and the 'M' mint mark of La Casa Moneda de Mexico shown.

The history of Mexico is also highlighted on the back of the coin. In the centre is the coat of arms of Mexico: a Mexican eagle fighting a snake from a cactus, together with the text 'Estados Unidos Mexicanos', translated: United Mexican States'. Displayed around it are ten historic coats of arms, which have been used since 1820.

Variable face value

The Mexican Libertad silver coins are unique because there is no fixed nominal value (face value) engraved on the coin. Unlike many other silver and gold coins from sovereign mints, the Mexican Libertad has a variable nominal value, depending on current market conditions. To use the coin for commercial purposes, one will first need to contact Banco de Mexico to receive the daily face value.
