The obverse feature is the monument of independence, Angel de la Independencia which is displayed prominently in the heart of Mexico City. The monument is in homage to the Roman Goddess of victory, or Victoria, with no attention to detail left out. In the background, rest the Volcanoes Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl, the Nation's second and third largest volcanoes, respectively. The two volcanic structures hold a prominent role in Aztec mythology, as Popocatépetl was a fearsome warrior who was promised the Emperor's daughter, Iztaccíhuatl upon the successful completion of an ensuing battle, to increase the warrior's ferocity and resolve. Assuming that he would not return, the Emperor told his daughter that Popocatépetl had died in battle, causing Iztaccíhuatl to perish from grief. Following his triumphant return, the fearless warrior encountered his deceased bride and laid her to rest. Her form remains as Iztaccíhuatl mountain, or La Mujer Dormida, "The Sleeping woman." The legend of the reverse side of the coin reveals its weight, purity, and year of issue, written in Spanish. To this day, Popocatépetl remains an active Volcano, while Iztaccíhuatl does not.

At the center of the reverse, a Golden Eagle is depicted atop of a cactus, as it devours a snake. The encircling images are the various phases of the Mexican coat of arms in a clockwise direction. The reverse also pays tribute to the Aztec heritage of the Nation. It was prophesied that the ancient civilization would settle around the location in which the image was witnessed as reality. Mexico City is the land in which this prophecy is said to have materialized.

ABOUT THE MEXICAN MINT

Established in 1535, La Casa de Moneda de Mexico, or The Mexican Mint, is the oldest mint in the Americas and one of the world's oldest mints, with the Mexican Gold Peso being an enduring and highly collected relic of the past. With an operational life in excess of 400 years, it is safe to say that Mexico's national mint has a well-established and well-garnered reputation, working alongside Banco de México (the Mexican Bank) to mint circulating money for the Mexican people. A contributing factor to the mint's success is the Libertad bullion gold and silver coins.
