August 25 , 2025, was not just any date in Mexico's economic history. On that day, the Bank of Mexico celebrated its first centennial, a century of history since it opened its doors in 1925 as the institution charged with ensuring the stability of the national currency's purchasing power. To commemorate this unique occasion, the issuing institution presented a commemorative silver coin to the public , a piece whose design, right down to its finish, reflects both the central bank's historical richness and institutional standing.

The coin is not only a collectible; it also represents a tangible symbol of the country's economic memory, minted in 0.999 pure silver and weighing the equivalent of two troy ounces . Its face value is 10 pesos , but its true value goes far beyond the monetary: it is a tribute in precious metal to the founding of one of Mexico's most important institutions.


Design: history and modernity on two sides

Obverse


The obverse of the coin is dominated by the National Coat of Arms in sculptural relief , flanked by the traditional legend "ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS" (United Mexican States) . A visual gallery of the country's history unfolds around this central figure: it includes different versions of the national coat of arms that have been used throughout the centuries, as well as the representation of the eagle from the Mendoza Codex , one of the most important pictographic documents from the pre-Hispanic era.

The simplicity of its plain frame serves to highlight the symbolic richness of the design, transforming the obverse into a true synthesis of identity and historical continuity.

Reverse
 

The reverse pays direct homage to the Bank of Mexico itself. In the center, slightly offset to the left, appears the institution's main building , an emblematic architectural work of the Mexican capital. Above this image is the commemorative emblem:
"100. 1925–2025. BANCO DE MÉXICO . "

Following the upper contour, you can read the inscription "CENTENNIAL OF THE FOUNDATION OF THE BANK OF MEXICO ." On the right side is the denomination "$10," and below, the mark of the Mexican Mint, "M° ," certifying its origin and authenticity.

It will be available to the public through authorized distributors such as the Mexican Mint and the Interactive Museum of Economics (MIDE) , institutions that are also part of the country's cultural and financial tradition.

Beyond its availability and commercial value, this coin embodies a historic moment: the first hundred years of the Bank of Mexico's existence. An institution that has accompanied the nation through periods of transformation, crisis, and growth, today celebrates its legacy in a silver object that will remain as a testament to future generations.
