1987 Mexico 10 Pesos Coin (Miguel Hidalgo)

This is a 10 Pesos denomination currency coin from Mexico, minted in 1987. The coin is struck in a silver-colored stainless steel composition. The obverse shown features a forward-facing portrait of Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, a prominent leader of the Mexican War of Independence. To the left of the portrait, the denomination is listed vertically as '$10' above the mintage year '1987'. Below the portrait, the name 'HIDALGO' is inscribed in capital letters. To the right of the head is the 'Mo' mint mark, signifying the Casa de Moneda de México (Mexican Mint). The coin's edge is bordered by a raised beaded rim. Physically, the coin appears to have a diameter of approximately 19mm. The condition shows light circulation wear, including minor surface abrasions (bag marks) and a slight dulling of the original luster, though the high-relief details of Hidalgo's facial features remains sharp. There are no signs of major corrosion, deep gouges, or bending, indicating a well-preserved state for a 36-plus-year-old circulation strike.
