In contrast with its handling of the gold Libertad, the Mexican Mint has been much more consistent in its production of 1 oz silver Libertads. There have been new mintages every single year since 1982.
Those mintage numbers have varied wildly from one year to the next. Between 1982 and 1993, the mint produced more than 1 million 1 oz Libertads every year except one (1987).
However, mintages decreased rapidly during the 1990s. Due to a drop in silver prices, the mint produced a series-low 67,000 in 1998 – a record that stands to this day.
The good news is that production has never dropped below 200,000 since 2000. In fact, annual production exceeded the 1 million mark once again between 2009 and 2011. Most recently, the Mexican Mint issued more than 700,000 new 1 oz silver Libertads in 2024.
Fractional silver Libertads do exist, but in far fewer numbers than their 1 oz big brothers. Since 1991, the Mexican Mint has issued ½ oz, ¼ oz, 1/10 oz, and 1/20 oz versions of the silver Libertad.
However, across all four denominations, the Mexican Mint has produced fewer than 300,000 every single year. In many years, the mintage figures are much lower than that. In fact, in 2007, the Mexican Mint produced only 14,000 fractional silver Libertads total – 3,500 coins for each weight.
As recently as 2022, the numbers hovered on either side of 5,000 for all four denominations. There does seem to be renewed interest in the past few years, though – there were 25,000 1/20 oz, 1/10 oz, ¼ oz, and ½ oz silver Libertads stamped with the mint year 2024.
The Mexican Mint does produce three versions of the silver Libertad that are actually heavier than the standard 1 oz variety. There is a 2 oz, a 5 oz, and a 1 kg iteration available for purchase.
The 2 oz and 5 oz versions have been on sale since their introduction in 1996. Production numbers for either weight have never exceeded 50,000 in any year, but issues in 2023 and 2024 for both denominations moved beyond 20,000 – perhaps a sign of an uptick.
The 1 kg Silver Libertad has only been available since 2008, and it has not been produced in certain years. Mintage numbers on these whoppers have never been greater than the 6,000 released in 2011, and annual production has numbered in the hundreds every year since 2017.
1 kg silver Libertads are unequivocally the least-produced denomination in the entire series. If you do manage to spot one for sale (we’re out of stock at the moment), you might consider grabbing it before someone else does.
