Overview
- The piece marks Banxico’s 100th anniversary and is explicitly not legal tender for purchases or payments.
- The obverse shows the bank’s main façade and sculptures of work and abundance, while the reverse depicts a vault with bills, coins, and circuits to symbolize tradition and innovation.
- A sun motif linked to artist Fermín Revueltas nods to the institution’s visual heritage.
- Security features include tactile reliefs, transparent elements, color‑shifting inks, watermarks, and a dynamic thread with the number 100 and the Banxico monogram.
- Banxico has not set a date or method for obtaining the limited‑run specimen; some outlets suggest ATMs or select branches, and social‑media pre‑sales are already listing it at prices far above face value.
