Historical Context
This coin, commonly known as the 'Caballito' (little horse) due to its distinctive reverse design featuring Liberty on horseback, was issued during the Mexican Revolution. Although the user provided 'Mexican Libertad' as a primary name, this 1913 Un Peso coin is a distinct historical issue and predates the modern Mexican Libertad bullion coin series, though it shares a thematic connection through the depiction of Liberty and is a highly regarded Mexican silver coin.
