ABOUT THE MEXICAN MINT

Established in 1535, La Casa de Moneda de Mexico, or The Mexican Mint, is the oldest mint in the Americas and one of the world's oldest mints, with the Mexican Gold Peso being an enduring and highly collected relic of the past. With an operational life of over 400 years, it is safe to say that Mexico's national mint has a well-established and well-garnered reputation, working alongside the esteemed Banco de México (the Mexican Bank) to mint circulating money for the Mexican people. The Libertad bullion gold and silver coins contribute to the mint's success.
