2014 1 Oz Mexico Libertad BU

Harder to find lower mintage year.

Obverse: The central feature on the obverse is the Coat of Arms of Mexico. It depicts a Mexican golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus, devouring a rattlesnake. This imagery relates to the founding of Tenochtitlan, present-day Mexico City. The coat of arms is rooted in the legend where the god Huitzilopotchli told the Aztec people to build their city at the location where they saw an eagle eating a snake on top of a cactus. The bottom half of the coat of arms has oak and laurel leaves encircling the eagle. The top half has the words "ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS" encircling the eagle. Ten previous versions of the Mexican coat of arms surround the current one.

Reverse: The design used was based on the 1921 gold Centenario, a coin issued to mark the centennial of Mexican independence. The winged Victoria of Angel of Independence is in front with the volcanoes Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl in the background. The new Libertad series shows a three-quarter side profile of the angel. Inscribed across the top are the denomination of "1 ONZA", the composition "PLATA PURA",  and "2014 LEY .999" which specifies the date and purity. The "O/M" mint mark can be found on the right. The Libertad series is widely regarded as being the most beautiful world bullion series.
