| Additional information |
The "Brasero Efigie" in the series name refers to the Aztec sacrificial brazier vessel depicted on this issue — one of the rotating pre-Columbian artifact designs the Casa de Moneda cycled through its Libertad-adjacent bullion program during the late 1980s and early 1990s. By 1992, Mexico had already endured a decade of peso devaluations severe enough to render the face value of 100 pesos essentially ceremonial; the coin's worth was understood by everyone — buyer, seller, and mint alike — to be entirely in the silver content.
