| Additional information |
This piece belongs to the long-running Mexican Mint series celebrating the country's 31 states plus the Federal District, each issued as a one-year type in .999 silver. Michoacán's entry highlights a program that ran from 2003 through roughly 2008, with collector interest varying sharply by state — issues tied to more obscure or lower-population states tend to carry modest premiums over bullion despite identical mintage structures.
Michoacán itself was the heartland of the Purépecha empire, the only major Mesoamerican civilization that successfully resisted Aztec expansion.
