Reverse description The reverse depicts the iconic 'Caballito' (Little Horse) design by French sculptor Charles Pillet: an allegorical figure of Liberty at full gallop on horseback, facing left. In her raised right hand she holds an oak branch symbolizing strength, while her left hand bears a flaming torch representing enlightenment and independence. The rising sun appears on the horizon behind the horse, its rays radiating across the field. The date appears in the lower exergue area, enclosed by periods. The composition commemorates the centennial of the Grito de Dolores and the beginning of Mexican independence.
