Mexico 100 pesos World Wildlife Monarch Butterfly PR69 PCGS silver coin 1987

This Mexico 100 Pesos 1987 proof silver coin celebrates the monarch butterfly, one of North America’s most recognizable migratory species and an important symbol of Mexico’s natural heritage. The wildlife side presents a graceful group of monarch butterflies in flight, arranged across the reflective field in different sizes and positions, with finely rendered wings and bodies creating a sense of movement. The inscriptions include “mariposa monarca,” 1987, $100, “plata 720” and the Mo Mexico City mint mark. The opposite side displays Mexico’s national coat of arms: a powerful eagle with spread, layered feathers grasping a snake while perched on a prickly pear cactus, framed by oak and laurel branches and the legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS. Monarch butterflies are famous for their extraordinary seasonal migration, with vast numbers reaching central Mexico for wintering. Struck in silver with a brilliant Proof Deep Cameo finish, this example is certified PCGS PR69DCAM, a superb near-perfect grade that highlights the frosted butterflies against mirrorlike fields. An appealing collectible combining Mexican wildlife, conservation, migration and numismatic artistry.
