In 1987, the Mexican government introduced a special series of commemorative medals to recognize the 200th anniversary of the United States Constitution. This release served as a respectful international tribute, with Mexico’s official mint producing a design that honors an important moment in American history.

In the summer of 1787, delegates from twelve of the original thirteen states met in Philadelphia to address the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. Over several months, they worked together to create a new system of government that would better support a growing nation. The result was the United States Constitution, a document that established a balance of power between branches of government and continues to guide the country today.

All 1987 12 oz Proof Mexican 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Rounds come housed in protective boxes. The Mexican Mint issued this piece as part of its tribute to the U.S. Constitution’s bicentennial, with a very limited total mintage of just 500 rounds.

The obverse of the 1987 Proof Mexican 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Round displays a historic coin press used by the Casa de Moneda de México. The design also includes inscriptions noting the mint’s name, the year 1987, and the metal content, which is presented in English for this platinum release.

On the reverse of the 1987 12 oz Proof 200th Anniversary Casa De Moneda Platinum Round, you will find portraits of Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson. Each of these individuals played a key role in the founding of the United States, contributing to its independence, leadership, and early development.
