In 1987, the Mexican government commissioned a series of commemorative medals to mark the 200th anniversary of the United States Constitution. This release represented a gesture of international recognition, as Mexico’s national mint produced a tribute to a key document in American history. The platinum round was included as part of a broader, multi-metal commemorative program. Silver versions were available in 1, 5, and 12 onza weights, while gold editions were struck in ¼ onza and 12 onza denominations. Today, 1987 12 oz Proof Mexican 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Rounds are available from JM Bullion.
Round Highlights:
In the summer of 1787, fifty-five delegates from twelve of the thirteen states gathered in Philadelphia for the Constitutional Convention, united by the shared recognition that the existing Articles of Confederation had proven too weak to sustain an effective national government. Over the course of four months of deliberation, debate, and compromise, they drafted a document that established a federal framework of governance. It balanced the powers of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, and has become one of the most enduring and influential constitutional charters in world history.
All 1987 12 oz Proof Mexican 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Rounds are available in protective boxes. These rounds were issued by the Mexican Mint to honor the 200th anniversary of the creation of the United States Constitution, with only 500 rounds struck by the mint.
The obverse design of the 1987 Proof Mexican 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Round showcases the historic minting press of the Casa de Moneda de México. Surrounding elements include the inscription CASA DE MONEDA DE MEXICO, the year 1987, and, distinctively for the platinum issue, the metal designation presented in English rather than Spanish.
On the reverse of 1987 12 oz 200th Proof 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Rounds, you will find depictions of Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson. Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and George Washington each played an indispensable role in the birth of the United States — Jefferson as the primary architect of the Declaration of Independence, Franklin as a diplomat, statesman, and voice of Enlightenment reason, and Washington as the commanding general who led the Continental Army to victory and later served as the nation’s first President.
