Mexico 50 Pesos Centenario Coin $13264

Mexico 50 Pesos Centenario Coin $13264 The Mexico 50 Pesos Gold Centenario is a prestigious and historically significant coin, first minted in 1921 to celebrate the centennial of Mexico's independence from Spain. This impressive specimen contains 37.5 grams (1.2057 troy ounces) of pure gold, set within a total weight of 41.67 grams of 90% fine gold alloy. The obverse features the iconic image of "Angel de la Independencia," the Winged Victory, holding a laurel wreath in her right hand and broken chains in her left, set against a backdrop of the Mexican volcanoes Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl. The reverse displays the national coat of arms of Mexico, an eagle perched on a cactus with a snake in its beak. Notably, the Centenario is approximately 20% larger than the U.S. Double Eagle $20 gold coin, making it one of the largest and most visually striking bullion coins ever produced. Most coins dated 1947 are restrikes, but they remain highly sought after by collectors and investors alike for their substantial gold content and exquisite artistic design. Condition: The coin appears to be in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, showing strong luster and sharp details on the Winged Victory figure and the surrounding inscriptions. There are no obvious signs of significant wear, although minor contact marks or surface abrasions may be present but obscured by the plastic packaging. The mint is the Casa de Moneda de México (Mexico City Mint), identified by the "Mo" mint mark typically found on these issues. The metal content is 90% gold and 10% copper, an alloy used for durability, with the gold content specified on the coin as 37.5g Oro Puro. Historically, the Centenario was first issued in 1921 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mexico's independence from Spain, featuring the iconic "El Ángel" design. The strike type is a business strike intended for circulation and bullion purposes, characterized by its high relief and matte-like finish in some years. The grading is unknown as the coin is raw and not encased in a professional third-party grading slab, though it visually aligns with an uncirculated grade.
