1968 Mexico 25 Pesos – Silver Olympic Commemorative (Mo Mint)
This is a 1968 United Mexican States 25 Pesos silver commemorative coin, struck for circulation in connection with the Games of the XIX Olympiad held in Mexico City. The coin is composed of silver and bears the “Mo” mint mark of the Mexico City Mint, which is clearly visible on the reverse. The piece is encapsulated in a third-party holder; however, no grade or certification details are visible in the provided images.
The obverse displays the national coat of arms of Mexico, depicting an eagle standing left upon a prickly pear cactus while grasping a serpent in its beak and talon. The surrounding legend reads “ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS,” with the denomination “25 PESOS” placed at the left of the design.
The reverse features a stylized pre-Columbian runner shown in motion with arms extended, framed by geometric elements. The legend “JUEGOS DE LA XIX OLIMPIADA MEXICO 1968” encircles the upper portion, with the Olympic rings below. To the right appears the inscription “LEY 0.720,” denoting the silver fineness, with the “Mo” mint mark positioned directly beneath.
