The history of tribes in Mexico and US
This is not about a hundred years, this one refers to the coins named "centenario" that are used as money to pay as compensation of some tribes. I haven´t found a good translation for the word or maybe there isnt a translation?
Gold coins is my guess.
Any ideas are much appreciated!

Centenario
I think you should keep it untranslated. It would be good to have other references for these coins. I just found this article with information about the "Mexican Centenario de oro". I hope you find it useful!
Example sentence:
Also known as the Centenario de oro, the Mexican 50 Peso was first issued in 1921 to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of Mexico's War of Independence.

: No! The heading is clear "history of tribes in Mexico and US". See coin and a description here: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/461830136761412338/ (You don't translate a proper name)./The point is not "if", but one does not translate a proper name.

I believe you have not understood the explanation. Please read it again. I have proposed an option yet left it to the asker to consider whether the term has to be translated. Let us leave it that.
