Obverse (First Image): Features the iconic Mexican coat of arms, depicting an eagle perched on a cactus with a snake in its beak, representing the founding of Tenochtitlán (now Mexico City). The words “ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS” encircle the design, meaning “United Mexican States.”
Reverse (Second Image): Displays the Winged Victory (El Ángel de la Independencia), a symbol of Mexico’s independence. The years “1821” and “1921” commemorate 100 years of Mexican independence from Spain. Inscriptions include “50 PESOS” and “37.5g ORO PURO” (37.5 grams of pure gold).
Additional Info: The Centenario was first minted in 1921 to celebrate Mexico’s centennial of independence. While the original minting occurred from 1921 to 1931, restrikes continued from 1943 to 1972, making them a popular choice for investors and collectors.
