Mexico 500 pesos Republic Mint Error Broadstrike MS 64 PCGS CuNi coin 1988

This Mexico 500 Pesos coin from 1988 is a remarkable copper-nickel mint error, certified PCGS MS64, featuring a broadstrike that gives the coin an expanded, irregular outer rim. The obverse presents Francisco I. Madero in a detailed portrait with neatly combed hair, a prominent mustache, pointed beard and formal jacket. The inscriptions Madero, 1988, $500 and the Mo mint mark accompany the portrait, surrounded by a distinctive geometric border. Madero was a central figure of the Mexican Revolution who challenged Porfirio Díaz and became president in 1911, helping shape Mexico's democratic history. The reverse features the national coat of arms: a majestic eagle with spread wings holding a serpent while perched on a prickly pear cactus with rounded fruits. Oak and laurel branches, a ribbon, the inscription ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS and a beaded border complete the design. The visible broadstrike makes this certified Mint State coin a fascinating collectible for enthusiasts of Mexican history and mint errors.
