1986 Mexican 1 oz Silver Libertad Coin ICG BU Quality IDC Verified
1986 Fifth-Year-of-Issue Mexican Libertad
High above the Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City, standing tall among the trees and buildings that line the street's path, is the majestic Monumento a la Independencia. Tourists and city dwellers alike know it as the Angel of Independence, or simply El Ángel. Cast in bronze and adorned with 24-karat gold, this monument’s namesake, “Winged Victory,” seems to float from the pedestal. A landmark symbol of triumph, freedom, and peace, Mexico’s famous Angel continues to gather people far and wide in proud remembrance. So, it's no wonder that this work of art was the theme that graced Mexico's bullion Libertads following the series' monumental debut. And now, more than 40 years later, you can secure one of these early, vintage-date coins in a remarkable, pristine Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) Quality condition!
Razor-Sharp Details Augment Exquisite Designs
Struck in a Troy ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver by the Casa de Moneda de México—the famed Mexican Mint, the oldest mint in the western hemisphere—this dazzling coin features razor-sharp details that augment its exquisite designs. It’s also a legal-tender coin bearing a denomination of 1 Onza that appears just to the left of the Angel. The coin’s obverse features Mexico's National Coat of Arms that shows an eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus growing from a rock in a lake, devouring a rattlesnake, with oak and laurel branches forming a semicircle below, symbolizing the Aztec legend of their capital’s founding.
