Silver Mexican Libertad

The 1 oz Silver Mexican Libertad is one of the most beautiful and unique government-issued silver coins in the world. Made from .999 fine silver and featuring the iconic Mexican National Seal, inscribed with “Estados Unidos Mexicanos”, these coins are highly sought after by collectors and investors alike. Known as Mexican bullion coins, Silver Libertads have become a cornerstone of global silver numismatic collections.

History of the Silver Mexican Libertad

The roots of the Silver Libertad trace back to the Spanish Milled Dollars, also known as “pieces of eight,” which became the standard trading currency in the 1800s. Accepted universally across borders, these coins even served as legal tender in the United States until the late 1800s.

In 1982, the National Mint of Mexico introduced the 1 oz Silver Libertad, designed to appeal to both coin collectors and investors. With its government-guaranteed quality and numismatic excellence, the Silver Libertad has become the longest-running issue in Mexico’s silver coin collections.
