The Mexican Libertads are minted in extremely low quantities compared to other bullion coins, which increases both demand and premiums. In addition to their low mintage, the attractive design of the winged victory statue adds a collectability aspect that can be appreciated by numismatists as well. The obverse feature is the monument of independence: Angel de la Independencia, the Mexican independence victory column holding the winged victory statue displayed prominently in the heart of Mexico City in a sculptural relief design. The monument pays homage to the Roman Goddess of Victory, or Victoria, with no attention to detail left out. In the background, the coin highlights two critical symbols of Mexican history: Popocatpetl and Iztacchuatl, the Nation's second and third largest volcanoes, respectively. The two volcanic structures are prominent in Aztec mythology and Mexico's history. Popocatpetl was a fearsome warrior who was promised the Emperor's daughter, Iztacchuatl, to increase the warrior's ferocity and resolve upon completing an ensuing battle. Assuming he would not return, the Emperor told his daughter that Popocatpetl had died in the war, causing Iztacchuatl to perish from grief. Following his triumphant return, the fearless warrior encountered his deceased bride and laid her to rest. Her form remains as Iztacchuatl mountain, or La Mujer Dormida, "The Sleeping Woman." The legend of the coin's reverse side reveals its weight, purity, and year of issue, written in Spanish. To this day, Popocatpetl remains an active Volcano, while Iztacchuatl does not. At the center of the reverse, an Eagle is depicted atop a prickly pear cactus as it devours a snake. The encircling images are the various phases of the Mexican coat of arms in a clockwise direction and the inscription "Estados Unidos Mexicanos." The reverse also pays tribute to the Aztec heritage of the Nation. It was prophesied that the ancient civilization would settle around where the image was witnessed as reality. Mexico City is the land where this prophecy is said to have materialized.
