I got these last night and didn't realize until later that one was scarcer. Does anyone know more about this particular date?

No idea about scarcity.... but both look like nice coins... I have been thinking about getting one of these... because I do like the design... Cheers, RickO
the 1995 had a mintage of about 500,000 the 1991 mintage was closer to 1.6 million for one ouncers
It's the 1991. This is the type 2 and is apparently a lot scarcer.

those look to be pretty nice examples. Someone took care of them well. Seems the type 2 sells for double or so, depending on if it is certified. Ebay is probably best source for pricing, since APMEX only publishes prices when they have one in stock to sell (you could always call)
@Barndog Actually, yes, the 1991 is incredibly clean and has a great strike. I'm happy to have found it for the collection.

I love the Liberad series. I was buying them back when they were in paper rolls.
I did get myself an graded uncirculated gold set from MCM, which are just plain stunning.
Very nice coins. I think a newer one somewhere thanks rln

Digging deep to find this thread, the answer to the question as to where I got my original 1991!

There’s a video on YouTube, but let me grab a screenshot. It’s actually really neat and I have both types…

If anyone is interested, this guy covers the two about as good as can possibly be done. It’s a good channel if you like Mexican coins.

Actually, I have both with TrueViews
Type 1 MS68, I wish it was a 69, but they’re $600+ to buy a certified example. The 68 was around $200…
Type 2
Of course, 69 is way over $1000 at this point, the only way I was able to do it was to luck into having a raw one, as is shown at the beginning of this thread:

Anyone else here have the full set? I do, but not for much longer if the rumors are true. 2025 1 Ounce Silver Libertad's with a mintage of 3-5 hundred coins??? Great way to get rid of hundreds of thousands of faithful collector's for all these years. I don't know about you, but I'll sell off the entire set as I'll never be able to fill that spot at those prices. I wouldn't even want to.. What says ya'll???
