2009 Mexican Silver Libertad

The Libertad is Mexico's treasure coin and is minted at Casa de Moneda de Mexico, which was established in 1536 and is the oldest Mint in North America.


These magnificent BU .999 fine 1 oz Silver bullion coins are very popular with collectors. The obverse features the Independence Angel against a backdrop of the "Lovers' Peaks" twin volcanoes. The reverse carries the national seal of Mexico surrounded by previous seals used during Mexico's history. Pictures shown here are the new design adopted since 1996.

Due to the low mintage, the Libertads command a premium over the American Eagles and Canadian Maples.
