Overview

Historical significance

This coin was part of a gold series introduced following Mexico's 1905 monetary reform. It features the iconic national symbol rooted in Aztec legend. While originally minted as currency, these small gold coins became popular worldwide as a highly liquid gold bullion investment.

Estimated value

$100.00 - $130.00 USD (Value is primarily driven by current gold spot prices)

Care & preservation

Avoid cleaning or polishing the coin as this can cause micro-abrasions that significantly lower numismatic value. Handle only by the edges using clean hands or cotton gloves, and store in a PVC-free plastic flip or capsule to prevent scratches.
