| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned royal arms of Spain occupy the central field, displaying the quartered shield with the castles of Castile and lions of León, the chains of Navarre, and the pomegranate of Granada, all surmounted by a royal crown. The shield is encircled by the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece rendered as a decorative chain. The denomination numeral 1 appears to the left of the shield and the assayer initial S to the right. The circular legend IN·UTROQ·FELIX·A·D· surrounds the design, with the Mexico City mint mark Mo and assayer initial HJ positioned in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fernando VII never set foot in Mexico, and by the time these escudos were being struck at the Casa de Moneda in Mexico City, he was a prisoner of Napoleon at Valençay. The coins were issued in his name by a colonial administration trying to project legitimacy during a period of acute political instability — the very years Hidalgo's revolt was reshaping New Spain from below.
The 1811 and 1812 dates are considerably scarcer than 1809 and 1810, a direct consequence of the disruptions caused by the insurgency to trade and mint operations.
