The Proof Gold Libertad has an interesting history at the Mexican Mint. The coins were issued just twice in the first 19 years of existence. The first release was a 1 oz gold coin in 1983, followed by a 1/2 oz gold coin in 1989. It was another 15 years before Proof Gold Libertads were issued once again.
In 2004, the Mexican Mint finally established the Proof Gold Libertad as an annual numismatic issue. The coins were reintroduced in 1 oz and 1/2 oz gold, with 1/4 oz, 1/10 oz, and 1/20 oz gold coins added into the mix. Since 2004, these five weights have been offered every year, with the Mexican Mint introducing reverse proof coins in 1 oz and 1/2 gold in 2018 to expand its numismatic offerings.
For the obverse of the 2024 1/10 oz Proof Gold Libertad Coin, the Mexican Mint feature the national coat of arms.

The modern seal capture that same golden eagle devouring a snake.
