History

The Mexican Mint launched the Gold Libertad series in 1981 with BU coins, followed by the first Proof issues in 1983. After limited early production, Proof coins returned to the market in 2004 following the last pre-hiatus release in 1989. Today, the Proof Gold Libertad series includes the 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/10 oz, and 1/20 oz coins.
