In 1981, one of the world’s less visible gold bullion collections was launched by the Mexican Mint. At the time, the Gold Libertad was poised to be the third annual-release gold bullion coin behind the Gold Krugerrand and Gold Maple Leaf. However, after one issue in 1981, it disappeared for a decade and would not become an annual-release series until the 21st century. Now, 1982 1 oz Gold Mexican Libertad Coins are available to you for purchase online from Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Coins ship to you inside individual protective flips!
  • First year of release for the Gold Mexican Libertad!
  • Announced mintage of 596,000 coins in 1981!
  • Consists of One Troy ounce of .900 gold content.
  • The obverse depicts Winged Victory.
  • On the reverse is the coat of arms of Mexico.

The Gold Libertad was issued in 1981 with three weights. The coins issued this year included the 1 oz gold coin, a 1/2 oz gold coin, and a 1/4 oz gold coin. These are not only the oldest weights from the series, but also the highest-minted weights ever seen in the collection’s history. The mintages achieved in 1981 stand as the three highest mintages, in order from 1 oz, to 1/4 oz, to 1/2 oz.

However, after issuing the coins in 1981, the Mexican Mint did not issue Gold Libertads again until 1991. When it did, 1/10 oz and 1/20 oz gold coins were added, but the coins were only struck until 1994. The coins returned in 2000, only to be suspended in 2001. Since 2002, the only disruption to coining was a lack of fractional-ounce Gold Libertads in 2012.

The obverse of 1981 Gold Mexican Libertads comes with a portrait of Winged Victory. Based on a statue at the top of the Mexican Independence Victory Column, this image shows Victory in front-facing relief as she holds up a wreath in one hand and clutches broken chains in the other hand.

On the reverse of 1981 1 oz Gold Libertads is a depiction of the modern coat of arms. The seal of Mexico is found in the center with a golden eagle battling a serpent on the branch of a prickly pear cactus. Around the seal is an oak-and-laurel wreath below, with the nation of issue above.

These 1981 1 oz Gold Mexican Libertads are available in protective flips. The mintage of 596,000 coins in 1981 stands in stark contrast to all other mintage levels for this coin. The 1991 coin had a mintage of 109,193, but no other date mark has exceeded 74,000, and no 21st-century date mark has exceeded 15,000.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
