Mexico’s coinage experienced a reform in the last decade of the 20th century. Many coins were done away with in the reform, but the Huehueteotl coin was issued in 1993 with the new peso denomination and keeping the previous design and size. This 1993 Proof 1 oz Mexican Silver Huehueteotl 5 Peso Coin is a noncirculating version of that coin.
The obverse design features the national coat of arms of Mexico within a D-shaped border with the flat part on the bottom. The coat of arms features a golden eagle eating a snake while perched on a cactus. The image relates to an Aztec legend that said the people would know where to place their city when they saw an eagle eating a snake near a lake. The obverse also includes inscriptions that indicate the fineness and weight of the silver and the name of the nation.
The reverse design includes a sculpture of Huehueteotl, which is also bordered with a D-shaped design. Huehueteotl is a pre-Columbian god that plays a major role in the mythos and religions of peoples in the area of current-day Mexico. Huehueteotl plays an especially important role in Aztec mythology and is considered the god of fire and also the creator of life.
The 1993 Proof Mexican Silver Huehueteotl 5 Peso Coin arrives in a protective plastic slab. You can choose to keep it in the slab to protect its near-perfect condition and the value that comes with a PR69 grade from the PCGS. The coin’s deep cameo design brings the intricate details on either side to life, making this a stunning display piece.
