Mexico Silver 100 Pesos (1977-1979) Avg Circ
This Mexican silver coin, minted between 1977 and 1979, offers a fascinating window into the country's rich numismatic design. Struck in 72 percent fine silver, the coin contains 0.6430 troy ounces of precious metal. Cataloged by numismatists as KM-483, this 100 Pesos denomination represents a transition era in Mexico's modern coinage, combining historical portraiture with powerful national symbols. One side of the coin honors the revolutionary hero José María Morelos, showing his portrait alongside the 100 Pesos value (written as CIEN PESOS), the specific year of minting, and the famous 'Mo' mint mark representing the historic mint in Mexico City. The opposite side displays the iconic Mexican coat of arms, which depicts a majestic eagle perched upon a cactus while holding a snake in its beak, surrounded by the words ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS.
