1/4 Onza 'Libertad'

The Libertad series launched in 1982 as Mexico's answer to the Krugerrand and Maple Leaf, but the quarter-ounce denomination was added later, in 1992, filling out the bullion range that now spans five sizes. Unlike sovereign bullion coins from most other mints, Libertads carry no face value — a deliberate policy choice that frees the coins from legal tender constraints and allows their worth to float entirely with silver spot.

Mintages for this denomination have historically been low relative to the one-ounce, occasionally dipping below 200,000 in lean years, which creates meaningful scarcity in the secondary market despite the coin's bullion classification.
