Mexico-Provinces Coins
The monetary history of Mexico-Provincias is fascinating and reflects the political and economic changes of the country. From colonial times to the present, Mexican currency has undergone several transformations, influencing numismatics and the national economy.
Colonial times and the first independent coins
During the colonial period, Spanish coins such as the real de a ocho were mainly used. After independence in 1821, Mexico began to mint its own coins, such as the silver peso. In the provinces, some regions issued provisional coins due to the scarcity of circulating currency, creating unique and valuable pieces for today's collectors.
Monetary evolution in modern Mexico
In the 20th century, Mexico underwent several monetary reforms. In 1905 the gold standard was adopted, and in 1993 the new peso was introduced. An important milestone was the creation of the Banco de México in 1925, which centralized the issuance of currency. Mexican numismatics was enriched with commemorative series, such as the 1968 Olympic coins, which are highly appreciated by collectors.
