Libertad is the Spanish word for Freedom.
In 1982, the Mexican Mint started to produce the Mexican Silver Libertad 1 Onza Bullion Coin for investors and collectors.
From 1982 to 1996, the Mexican Silver Libertad Onza portraited the same design as the Centanario “Winged Victory” Angel design taken from Mexico’s 50-peso gold bullion coin.

New Design
In 1996, the Silver Libertad Bullion Coins changed the reverse side of the coin to the current “Winged Victory” design.
The Angel of Independence
El Ángel de la Independencia or The Angel of Independence design on the Mexican silver bullion coin represents the famous statue of Winged Victory.
The famous Mexican statue is located on a roundabout in the Paseo de la Reforma in downtown Mexico City.
The Angel of Independence is depicted as flying atop a victory column know as the “Independence Column or Columna de la Independencia.”
“El Angel”, as the statue is commonly known, holds in her right hand a laurel crown, symbolizing Victory, while in her left hand she holds a broken chain, symbolizing Freedom.
El Angel was built in 1910, to commemorate the Centennial of the beginning of Mexico’s War of Independence.
The Statue is made of solid bronze and covered in 24k gold, it weighs 7 tons.
The Angel of Independence is one of Mexico City’s most recognizable landmarks.

The volcanic peaks memorialize the legend of two lovers for whom they were named.
Inscribed along the top of the 1 oz. Silver Libertad bullion coin is “1 ONZA” (one ounce), “PLATA PURA” (pure silver).
The year of issue is also inscribed along the top of the coin, along with the word “Ley” (pure) “.999” representing the silver purity of the coin.

The Mexican silver bullion coins do not have a face value.

Testing for gold purity can be done by sending it to your nearby goldsmiths or jewelry retail shops. However, testing the purity of your silver coins or bars may not be so simple. Let us share the steps involved in having an assay office to test silver coins or bars.
FEDMAS Assay Office Sdn Bhd had a rapid assessment of metal products. They have 3 offices in Malaysia, namely in Johor Bahru, KL and Penang as their main office. They are able to test for gold and silver purity. For more details, go to FEDMAS website.
We will share with your our experience having our “Scottsdale ‘The One’ 1oz Silver Bar” tested by the branch in KL. It is advisable to call in advance to make an appointment for your test. We were advised that the KL branch prefers afternoon period for walk-ins.
^ Located along Jalan Kelang Lama
Location of the KL branch is along Jalan Kelang Lama, behind Wisma Rockwills. You will have to come from PJ direction, slow down when you reach the Esso Petrol Station and turn left immediately after the Police Station. Do take note as this junction is easily missed, because it is blocked by many cars parked by the kerbside. Be warned that finding a parking spot near the office is just as good as striking a lottery, patience will be tested.
