The Mexican Mint introduced the Mexican Gold Liberty coins in 1981 with a 1 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1/4 oz gold option available to investors. The mintages for each of the three coins in that year remain the record highs, including the 596,000 coins for the 1 oz gold release in 1981. It would be another decade before the coins were issued again.
In 1991, Mexican Gold Libertads were reintroduced with the addition of 1/10 oz and 1/20 oz gold coins. Those five were issued from 1991 to 1994, halted from 1995 to 1999, struck in 2000, not in 2001, and finally resumed in 2002.
Winged Victory is the focal point of the design on the obverse of 2018 1 oz Mexican Gold Libertad Coins. Winged Victory is depicted as she is found on the top of the Mexican Independence Victory Column. Her right hand is held out with a wreath in it and her left hand is down at her side with broken chains clutched. The mountains of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl are visible in the distant background.
The national coat of arms for Mexico is found on the reverse side of the 2018 Mexican Gold Libertad Coins. In this design, the modern coat of arms is depicted in the center with a cactus wreath below and the words “Estados Unidos Mexicanos” engraved above the design. Around the outer edge of the design field is a depiction of 10 historic versions of the same seal.
These 2018 1 oz Mexican Gold Libertad Coins have Mint State 70 certifications from the NGC with an Early Release designation. MS70 coins showcase full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws. An Early Release coin is one that arrives for grading within the first 30 days of release from the mint.
