Proof Gold Mexican Libertads were issued just three times prior to 2005 and in just one weight each time. These included a 1 oz coin in 1983, a 1/2 oz coin in 1989, and a 1/4 oz coin in 2004. From 2005 onward, the Mexican Mint issues those three weights plus these 1/10 oz coins and 1/20 oz coins every year.
The obverse of 2019 Proof Gold Mexican Libertads features the statue of Winged Victory as shown atop the Mexican Independence Victory Column in Mexico City. Winged Victory is inspired by the Roman goddess Victory, also known as Nike to the Greeks. She was the goddess of victory and modified for Mexican depictions with a crown wreath and broken chains in one hand.
On the reverse, 2019 1/10 oz Proof Gold Mexican Libertads feature the Mexican coat of arms. This is the modern version of the seal and depicts a golden eagle battling a serpent from its perch on a cactus.
Proof Gold Libertads have very low mintage figures. Since the 2005 introduction of the 1/10 oz Proof Gold Libertad, its high mintage mark was reached in 2016 when 2,100 coins were sold and its low mintage was set in 2014 when just 250 coins were sold. None of the 1/10 oz Proof Gold Libertads were produced in 2012.
The Mexican Mint was founded in 1535 by Spanish conquistadors and is the oldest of its kind in the Western Hemisphere. It once struck coins for Spanish colonies throughout the West, but now produces bullion, numismatic, and circulating currency for Mexico.
