List of products by brand Bank of Mexico
Established in 1535, the Mexican Mint is one of the oldest minting institutions in the Americas. Today, it serves are Mexico’s National Mint and is known as the La Casa de Moneda de Mexico. The mint is not only responsible for striking circulating currency in Mexico, but it also produces gorgeous gold coins and silver coins. Moreover, its tremendous minting capacity allows it to strike precious metals products for other nations as well. Its customers include countries like Argentina, Bahamas, Brazil, Canada, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, and Spain among many others.
The Mexican Mint, or as it is known in Mexico – La Casa de Moneda de Mexico, is a reminder of Spain’s invasion of South America. Once Spain bested the Aztec Empire in 1521, Spanish Royals started mapping out a colony in the Western hemisphere. The immense quantities of precious metals posed a unique challenge for the Spaniards. After carefully weighing all options, the Spanish Crown decided that transporting unprocessed gold and silver all the way to Europe was a waste of resources. Viceroy Antonio de Mendoza came to South America bearing a decree from the Royal Crown soon after to create the very first precious metals mint in the Americas.
For the next 350 years, the Mexican Mint produced currency for the territories of ‘New Spain,’ which included all the Spanish colonies in South America – Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, Trinidad, the Bay Islands, and the Philippine Island. However, its products gained such renown that coinage from the Mexican Mint formed the basis of modern currencies like the US Dollar, Japanese Yen, and Chinese Yuan. The Mexican Mint has also become a top world mint for producing some of the most popular gold bullion and silver bullion products in the precious metals industry. Their uniquely designed coins are intricately designed and widely regarded to be one of the most beautiful bullion coins. Additionally, the Mexican Mint release their products to the wholesale market at reasonable premium prices. This allows retailers the ability to sell Mexican coins at small premium price mark ups when compared to the price of gold and price of silver. These two reasons will continue to make Mexican coins a popular investment among metals investors worldwide.
The Mexican Mint first launched the Mexican Gold Libertads in 1981 – making it one of the earliest gold coin series to retain popularity among collectors and investors to this day. Not only is it the official gold bullion coin of this North American country, it bears designs that portray the spirit of independence, liberty, culture, and heritage: integral components of Mexican values. The Angel of Independence, or Monumento a la Independencia, is a victory column in downtown Mexico City. This grand commemoration of Mexican independence is etched on the obverses of every Mexican Libertad Gold Coin. Furthermore, the background of this image displays the famed Mexican volcanoes – Popocatépetl and Iztaccihuatl in all their glory. On the reverses, Mexican Gold Libertads highlight the Mexican Coat of Arms – a ferocious eagle tearing into a snake with its sharp beak. Additionally, all the historical coats of arms used by Mexico over the years encircle the image of the current Mexican Coat of Arms.
The Mexican Silver Libertads make up the second facet of this internationally acclaimed annual precious metals coin series run by the Mexican Mint. Although the Gold Coin variants were first launched in 1981, the silver variants came along next year, in 1982. Since their mintage is always limited, they enjoy demand from a vast cross-section of precious metals collectors and investors who eagerly await each release. The face of the obverse side highlights the fascinating design of the Mexican National Seal with the engraving "Estados Unidos Mexicanos." At the center of the seal, a majestic Mexican Golden Eagle is seen perched on a cactus, devouring a rattlesnake. Older official National Seals of Mexico encircle the current National Seal. On the reverse face, a graceful image of the Winged Victory Statue of the Independence Victory Column is seen in the foreground, with the Iztaccíhuatl and Popocatepetl in the background (two famous volcanic peaks of Mexico). The purity and weight of Silver, the year of issue and the metal used are imprinted (in Spanish) on the outer edge of this side.
