| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Mexican republican eagle displayed, perched upon a cactus rising from a rocky outcrop, grasping a serpent in its beak — the traditional arms of the Mexican Republic rendered in fine intaglio detail. The eagle's wings are spread wide with elaborately engraved feathers, and a wreath of laurel and oak flanks the base of the cactus. The circumferential legend REPUBLICA MEXICANA arcs along the upper border in raised Latin capitals, contained within a toothed milled rim. |

| Reverse description | Central device features a Phrygian cap of Liberty set atop a radiating sunburst of bayonets and rifles, symbolizing the armed revolutionary forces of the Ejército del Norte (Army of the North). A ribbon inscribed LIBERTAD wraps across the cap, serving as a bold emblem of the Constitutionalist cause. The circumferential legend EJERCITO DEL NORTE arcs along the upper border, while the lower field bears the denomination UN PESO, the mint abbreviation CHA for Chihuahua, the date 1915, assayer initials FM, and the fineness 902.7, all within a reeded rim. |
