El presente artículo tiene como propósito indagar el debate sobre el ingreso de México al patrón oro realizado al interior de la Comisión Monetaria nombrada por el presidente Porfirio Díaz, a través de su ministro de finanzas, José Yves Limantour. La pertinencia del estudio radica en que muestra los distintos intereses económicos que se encontraban establecidos en el mercado mexicano y que se confrontaron y negociaron el cambio del sistema monetario.
