2 oz Silver Libertads
The Silver Libertad was released in a 2 oz proof version for the first time in 1996. These coins tend to have much lower mintages than their 1 oz counterparts, adding to the collectibility of the series. These 2 oz Libertad coins in .999 fine silver feature the coat of arms of Mexico on the obverse, surrounded by the historical Mexican coats of arms. The reverse features the two volcanoes, Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl, which have a legendary love story tied to them. The legend based on Aztec mythology tells the story of these two volcanoes, who were once star-crossed lovers – the princess Iztaccíhuatl and the brave warrior Popocatépetl. Iztaccíhuatl's father demands that Popocatépetl defeat their enemy before taking the princess as his bride. While the brave warrior fights and defeats the enemy, a rival spreads false news to the ruler that Popocatépetl has been defeated. When Iztaccíhuatl learns of this, she falls ill and dies from heartbreak. The Gods turn the humans into these two mountains so the two lovers can finally be together.
