Historical context
This medal commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Restoration of the Republic, that is, the triumph of the liberal forces led by Benito Juarez over the Second Empire of Maximilian in 1867. That year, with the fall of the Empire and the execution of Maximilian in Queretaro, the Republic regained control of the country.
The centennial of this episode was celebrated in 1967, when Mexico honored one of the founding moments of its liberal history. The Restoration opened the period of the Restored Republic, marked by the effort to rebuild and modernize the nation.
Minted in gold and cataloged by Grove, this piece lacks an exact year in the record, but its theme places it among the 1967 commemorations. Its value lies in the link to a key episode of national sovereignty and in the precious metal in which it was worked.
Description
The "Restauración de la República. 100 Aniversario" (Restoration of the Republic. 100th Anniversary) medal is part of Mexico's numismatic heritage. It is made of gold, measures 37.89 mm in diameter and 41.35 grams, struck in Mexico. In the specialized catalog it is referenced as Grove, Medals of México, II #965.
Being a gold medal, its value has a floor: the precious-metal content (41.35 grams). Above that, what drives it up is condition, the small size of the issue, and interest in the subject it commemorates (the 100th anniversary of the Restoration of the Republic). A piece with no wear and its original case is worth considerably more than one that has been handled.
