SD Bullion is proud to present another release from one of the most successful bullion gold coin programs from the Americas. These 2019 1/2 oz Mexican Gold Libertad Coins are the largest fractional weight releases struck by the Mexican Mint this year. The evergreen designs from the Gold Centenario make their customary appearance on these coins as well.
The Mexican Mint (known as the La Casa de Moneda de México) needs no introduction to those familiar with continental American history. The mint was established in 1535, making it the oldest operational mint in the Americas today. It originally served the Spanish Monarch, which used it to strike circulating currency for its colonies using the raw precious metals mined from the South American continent.
Each of these gold coins is struck using 1/2 troy ounces of 0.999 pure gold. Moreover, their gold purity and weight is backed by the Banco de Mexico (National bank of Mexico) -- indicating the support of a sovereign nation. Gold Libertads are renowned for their beautiful designs, quality striking, and extremely limited mintages. As a result, collectors have flocked to this program to secure their coins very quickly upon release from the Bank of Mexico. With a high level of collectibility and a low population, premiums in the secondary market of prior year issues generally rise significantly.
The famous Mexican volcanoes -- Popocatépetl and IztaccÃhuatl -- are rendered on the reverse sides, providing a majestic backdrop to the Winged Liberty that occupies the foreground. Both these images are iconic Mexican symbols. While the volcanoes represent the rich history and geography of the country, Winged Victory is a symbol of freedom and liberty.
These 2019 1/2 oz Mexican Gold Libertad Coins are integral parts of the successful Gold Libertad Program from the Mexican Mint. They'll complete your coin collections and ensure that you're investing in 0.999 pure gold that will serve as a way to grow your precious metals portfolio.
