If you’re here you know what you’re doing. What you see is what you get. The Mexican 20 Peso combines nearly half an ounce of Gold with great eye appeal. This is the only solid gold specie I’m aware of that depicts the intricate Mayan/Aztec “long count” calendar design. This coin also shows an interesting (and certified) mint error, with the remnants of a “1” appearing under the “2” in the date. Highly scarce example in MS-63. Only 24 in this grade, 12 in MS-64 and 5 in MS-65. None in any higher grades are known to exist today. 4823 oz of Gold. Prominent’overdate’ results from the “1” in the date being incompletely removed from an old die before it was re-punched with a “2” and reused in producing the 1921 issues. Obverse: Mexican coat of arms featuring a golden eagle perched atop a cactus, devouring a serpent. Date below wing, with 1921/11 overdate visible and certified by NGC. Reverse: Aztec Calendar Stone above legend bearing denomination and metal content. One of only two overdate varieties in the 20 Peso series, with the other being the 1920/10. See my other sales for a 50 Peso “Centenario” gold coin from the same original type set with an adjacent NGC certification number.
