Comisión Nacional de Seguros y Fianzas Medal (1994)

This medal relates to the National Insurance and Bonding Commission, the body charged with supervising and regulating insurers and bonding companies in Mexico. Created to watch over the soundness of that sector, it is part of the framework of authorities that safeguard the healthy functioning of the national financial system.

Issues like this accompanied anniversaries or official events of the body, leaving a record of its regulatory work.

Struck in silver in 1994, the piece belongs to the institutional medals tied to financial supervision bodies, of the kind issued to commemorate the entity's history and handed out among officials and participants as a memento of the event.

What it shows: The title associated with this slug is the Comisión Nacional de Seguros y Fianzas medal (1994), but the stored image shows a different piece. The obverse bears the cursive legend "Lic. Miguel Mancera A." above "BANCO DE MÉXICO," a laurel branch topped with a bow, and the year 1992. The reverse presents a composition of stepped frets with small icons and the legends "DEPORTE," "CULTURA," and "ARTE," plus the "oM" monogram of the Mexican Mint. Both faces include the "Colección Numismática del Banco de México" seal.

Context: The pictured piece belongs to the Numismatic Collection of the Banco de México and honors Miguel Mancera Aguayo, who led the central bank in that period. It does not match the Comisión Nacional de Seguros y Fianzas or the year 1994 indicated in the record, so the listing requires an image correction before it is published.

Value and collecting: Like any commemorative medal, it is not legal tender; its interest is numismatic. In silver, the state of preservation and the metal content are what govern the price. To compare real pieces, check the stores directory, and to resolve identification questions lean on the forum.
