1957 Mexico Silver 10 Pesos Juarez BU
Struck in 1957, this Mexican ten-pesos coin represents a fascinating moment in mid-century coinage. The piece is composed of 0.900 fine silver, containing 0.8357 troy ounces of precious metal. Minted in Mexico City, it survived in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, preserving the sharp details of its original engraving from a total mintage of just 100,000 pieces. The obverse displays the classic Mexican national coat of arms, showing an eagle perched on a cactus while gripping a snake. Surrounding this central emblem, the legend spells out the country of origin, the 10 Pesos denomination, the 1957 date, and the specific silver content and purity of the issue. On the reverse, a profile portrait of the Mexican statesman Benito Juarez faces left. To the right of his image, the historic Mo mint mark of the Mexico City Mint is clearly visible. This side also bears dual dates of 1857 and 1957, marking a century of significance.
