Mexico 1 Peso Jose Morelos (1970-1981) BU
This modern Mexican one-peso coin, minted between 1970 and 1981, offers a wonderful glimpse into the nation's visual identity. Struck by the Bank of Mexico, the coin features a portrait of the revolutionary leader Jose Morelos on its reverse, looking toward the left. The design is cataloged as KM number 460 and represents a classic era of Mexican coinage. The opposite side displays the traditional Mexican coat of arms, showing a powerful bird of prey perched as it devours a snake. Surrounding this central image is the inscription "Estados Unidos Mexicanos," identifying the United States of Mexico. This particular specimen is preserved in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, showcasing the original design details just as they left the Mexico City Mint.
