Banco de Mexico
Banco de México is the central bank of Mexico, founded in 1925. Its main responsibilities are to maintain the stability of the national currency, promote a sound financial system, and issue the country’s money, the Mexican peso (MXN).
In addition to monetary policy, the bank is also in charge of producing and distributing banknotes and coins, operating its own printing facilities and mints. Banco de México functions independently from the federal government and plays a key role in ensuring Mexico’s economic stability.
Various Years – Natural Characteristics of Minting, Material, and Time
The offered products originate from different years and therefore represent various minting periods and production phases. Each issue carries the characteristics of its respective year and reflects the technical and material-related properties of the time in which it was produced. It is precisely this diversity that gives such pieces their distinctive character and makes them authentic witnesses of continuous precious metal minting across multiple years.
Products in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) quality are characterized by a fresh, clear strike and an originally uniform surface. Nevertheless, even in this condition, silver and gold issues may display milk spots, minor inclusions, or fine scratches. These phenomena do not result from improper handling, but are material- and production-related. They may appear immediately after minting or develop over time. Especially in silver, milk spots are a well-known phenomenon that can occur independently of storage or handling and do not affect the metal content or authenticity of the piece.
With circulated products from older years, additional visible changes to the surface may occur. These include light toning, altered coloration, or a subtle patina that has developed over the years. Such changes result from natural reactions of the metal with ambient air and are typical characteristics of older mintings. They often give the piece an individual appearance and emphasize its temporal origin. These traces are expressions of age and history and do not represent a loss of quality.
It is important to note that all of these characteristics—whether milk spots, minor inclusions, fine scratches, or signs of toning—are not defects. They do not impair the precious metal content nor the fundamental minting quality. Rather, they are part of the natural properties of precious metals and the manufacturing process. Especially with products from different years, a completely uniform appearance is neither intended nor realistic.
Selection from various years also means that the mint year, fine design details, and surface appearance may vary. These differences make each individual piece unique. They demonstrate that precious metal products are not industrially standardized mass items, but rather creations whose appearance is shaped by material, time, and production conditions.
Taken as a whole, these products stand for authenticity and material integrity. They show precious metal as it truly is: alive, changeable, and not fully controllable. It is precisely these qualities that create the appeal of issues from different years. They combine substance with history and preserve their value regardless of minor visual variations.
