Proof Mexican Silver Libertad coins debuted in 1983 with only a 1 oz silver coin available. From 1986 until 1991, the 1 oz coin was the only option available in the proof series. Throughout the 1990s, the Mexican Mint would expand the offering of silver proof coins to include four fractional weights and two weights above 1 oz of pure silver.

On the reverse of the 2018 Proof Mexican Silver Libertad Coin, you’ll find the depiction of a figure known to the Mexican people as Winged Victory. Her figure is based upon the classical Greek depictions of the Goddess of Liberty. She became of a symbol of freedom for the Mexican people during and after their struggle for independence from Spain.

Winged Victory as shown on the Proof Silver Libertad coins is based upon the statue of her figure atop the Mexican Independence Victory Column. Erected in 1921, the column stands in the center of Mexico City to commemorate the 100^th anniversary of the nation’s independence from Spain.

The obverse side of 2018 1 oz Proof Mexican Silver Libertads features the coat of arms of Mexico. The modern coat of arms is featured in the center of the design field, with 10 historic depictions of the symbol surrounding it in a circle. There are also engravings of the nation’s name in Spanish and a wreath along the bottom half.

The Mexican Mint issues the Silver Libertad coins on an annual basis. Founded in 1535, the Mexican Mint is the oldest in the Western Hemisphere and today is the sovereign mint of Mexico.
