Here and now, we have our eye on a rare and valuable gold bullion coin: the Mexican Gold Libertad. Unlike most government-minted bullion coins with a fixed face value, the Libertad's worth is solely based on its gold content and market strength. This special feature distinguishes it from other gold bullion coins.
The Banco de México mints the Mexican Gold Libertad, which is renowned for its stunning and symbolic imagery. The reverse of the coin normally features the Winged Victory statue at the top of the Mexican Independence Victory Column, with Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl volcanoes rising in the distance. This recognizable image is a dominant icon of Mexico's glorious history and independence.
The reverse side has developed over the years, but is usually made up of the Mexican national emblem, a golden eagle sitting atop a prickly pear cactus, eating a serpent. Ten various forms of the national emblem used throughout the history of Mexico are encircled in the center detail, providing the coin with an element of historical significance.
The Gold Libertad comes in several sizes, from 1/20 of an ounce up to 1 troy ounce of gold. The gold is .999 pure, so it is a highly pure gold bullion coin. It does not have any face value assigned, so its cost follows the spot price of gold, plus a premium due to its popularity among collectors and investors.
For those who prefer to mix their holdings of gold with bullion that has an intrinsic value of gold mixed with beauty, the Mexican Gold Libertad is a good choice. The specialty design and national mint production make it a collectible. Although mostly worth the face value of the gold content, the imagination and historical iconography set it apart from more common bullion coins.
When considering an investment in gold, learning about the various types of bullion, such as the Libertad, is a good starting point. Every product is unique, and learning about its features helps investors make better decisions based on their requirements and preferences.
