1985 Mexico 100 Pesos Coin (Venustiano Carranza)

This is a 100 Pesos circulating commemorative coin from Mexico, minted in 1985. The coin is composed of aluminum-bronze, giving it a distinct golden-yellow hue. On the obverse shown, it features the profile of Venustiano Carranza, a primary leader of the Mexican Revolution and the first president of the constitutionalist government. To the right of the portrait is the denomination '$100' oriented vertically, with the year '1985' below it. The mint mark 'Mo' for the Mexico City Mint is visible to the left. The name 'V. CARRANZA' is inscribed in small letters at the base of the portrait. The coin has a diameter of approximately 26.5mm and features a reeded edge. The condition appears to be 'Circulated' with visible surface wear, minor scratches, and accumulated grime within the recesses of the engraving, particularly around the beard and lettering. There is a slight patina developing, which is typical for bronze-based alloy coins of this age. The striking quality is standard for high-volume circulation currency of the mid-1980s period.
