| Beschrijving voorzijde | Entirely typographic design within a plain rectangular field bordered by a continuous beaded inner frame. The legend is arranged in three horizontal lines reading ESTADO / L.Y.S. DE / OAXACA in bold incuse serif capital letters, identifying the issuing authority as the Free and Sovereign State of Oaxaca. The primitive, hand-cut character of the lettering reflects the emergency wartime conditions under which this provisional issue was produced. The irregular rectangular planchet has clipped corners, a characteristic feature of this emergency coinage series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The State of Oaxaca began issuing its own coinage in 1915 after declaring itself a "sovereign state" and withdrawing from Carranza's Constitutionalist government — one of the more defiant acts of regional autonomy during the Mexican Revolution. Governor José Inés Dávila authorized a local copper series to keep commerce moving as federal currency collapsed in credibility across the region.
These provisional issues were struck under genuinely makeshift conditions, and die quality varies considerably across the series. KM#709 specifically is among the more frequently encountered Oaxacan coppers, though survivors with clean, uncracked planchets are harder to find than raw numbers suggest.
