Other Silver Libertads

Minted fresh out of the oldest mint in the Americas, the Mexican Libertads make quite a statement in the silver bullion coin world. The Mexican Mint has been in business for over 500 years and is still a leader in producing national modern currency. The ruler of Mexico, at the time, was Antonio de Mendoza. Antonio was a Spaniard who issued a decree under the Spanish Crown to establish the first mint in the Americas. Oddly enough, that mint has been producing coins ever since to commemorate Mexico's liberation from Spain. The Mexican Libertads are considered pure silver bullion and with the varying mintages, their numismatic value draws in coin collectors from all over the world.
