Each 2019 1/20 oz Proof Mexican Silver Libertad Coin in this product listing is available to you with a protective capsule to ensure the beautiful proof finish of the coin. Proof coins have frosted designs overlaying mirrored background fields. The 1/20 oz Proof Silver Libertad is among the most sought-after weights in this collection.
Proof Mexican Silver Libertads roughly mirror the availability by year of their bullion counterparts. 1 oz coins have been available since 1983, fractional weights since 1992, and larger-than-one-ounce coins since 1996. The only year the 1/20 oz Proof Mexican Silver Libertad was not offered was 2012 when the only coin that was struck was the 1 oz option.
One unique facet of the Proof Mexican Silver Libertad coins is that they have higher mintages than their bullion counterparts. While the bullion coins failed to surpass 10,000 coins in 2018, the 1 oz Proof Silver Libertad coin alone had a mintage of 10,000 coins. The 1/20 oz proof coins have been trending downward in recent years from a 21st-century peak of 12,550 in 2016 to 7,900 coins in 2018.
The obverse of 2019 1/20 oz Proof Mexican Silver Libertad Coins is Winged Victory. This design is based on the statue of Winged Victory that appears on the top of the Mexican Independence Victory Column in the heart of Mexico City. The statue was erected in 1921 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mexican independence.
On the reverse of 2019 Proof Mexican Silver Libertad Coins is the national coat of arms. This seal includes an eagle resting on the arm of a cactus as it battles against a serpent locked in its beak and claws.
