The 1/10 oz Gold Libertad has been available for one fewer years than the 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1 oz gold coins. The latter weights were introduced in 1981 for just one year, and not issued again until 1991. When the Mexican Mint resumed coining the Mexican Gold Libertads in 1991, two more weights were added to the series. These included 1/10 oz and 1/20 oz gold coins, both of which have proven popular with investors. The highest mintage of the 1/10 oz Mexican Gold Libertad is 50,777 coins. The 1/10 oz gold coin set this mark in 1992 and has not approached highs near this at any other time in the program’s history. The next highest mintage is 10,000 coins, a mark achieved in 1991, 1993, and 1994.
Obverse designs of the 2021 Mexican Gold Libertad Coin include the image of the national coat of arms. The national seal is based on an ancient Aztec symbol found on the Codex Mendoza, an artistic document recorded in 1541 to chart the history of the rulers of the Aztec Empire and the founding of its capital city, Tenochtitlan.
Reverse visuals present on the 2021 1/10 oz Mexican Gold Libertad Coin focus on Winged Victory. Based on the goddess Victoria from Roman mythology, Victory became a symbol of Mexican resistance during its revolutionary fight against Spain for freedom from colonial control. Winged Victory is depicted here as the statue that stands atop the Mexican Independence Victory Column in Mexico City. The mountain peaks of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl, both active volcanoes, feature in the distant background field of the design element.
