As far as I know, there is no CURRENT catalog of these medals.

There is currently a 1964 "Matamoros" medal for sale on ebay for $75, but in my opinion that is WAY overpriced, even for a medal with a mintage of 5,000.

Loving this... a commemoration of commemorative medals! Is the Mexico mint often commissioned make medals for non Mexican groups? Noticed 1952 (Peru) and 1982 (Spain).

I am glad you are enjoying this series of posts. It is, in my opinion, a under appreciated area, but it has a rich history dating WAAAY back.

The 1952 I posted was not for Peru as far as I can tell. The 1982 was definitely minted by the Mexican Mint. I do not think they do it often, but they have done one or two for U.S. private groups. I'll try to find one, and post a photo of it.

Here is a medal made by the Mexico Mint for (at least partly) a U.S. based non-profit organization, The Arizona-Mexico Commission based in Phoenix, AZ.

Thanks for that. Having a limited edition medal made for a special occasion is nice. I would have thought costly and an extravagance but after seeing all the examples in your collection perhaps it is within reach for many organizations and individuals.

One of several different medals commemorating a total eclipse of the sun visible in Mexico.

This was a big year for medals in Mexico. The 500th anniversary of the "discovery" by Columbus and 450 years of Guadalajara prompted many different medals. This is not one of them.
