🕊️ Design & Heritage
-
Obverse: Portrait of Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, the father of Mexican independence, facing left. Above his head: legend “DIEZ Y NUEVE 19 GRAMOS ORO PURO” on some issues; others list “20 PESOS” and concentric design elements depending on year.
-
Reverse: Mexican coat of arms—eagle devouring a serpent atop a cactus—encircled by “ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS.” Denomination “VEINTE PESOS,” year, and the “Mo” mintmark appear below.
Most available coins bear the 1959 date—an official restrike by the Mexican Mint produced through the late 1970s. Earlier dates command collector premiums but may appear in random-year lots.
📈 Investment & Collector Appeal
The 20 Peso is popular for its substantial 0.4823 oz AGW, lower premiums than modern bullion, and iconic Hidalgo imagery. Fractional enough for flexible liquidation yet large enough to minimize per-ounce costs, it bridges investor and collector interests.
🗃️ Packaging & Delivery
Coins are counted, weighed, and sealed in flips or tubes depending on quantity. Summit Metals ships every order discreetly, fully insured, and trackable from our vault to your door.
