| Obverse description | At left, a full-length vignette of the Christopher Columbus statue stands on a pedestal against a radiating guilloche background. A central oval vignette presents the Mexican national eagle perched on a cactus devouring a serpent, with a mountain landscape behind. To the lower right, a Toltec stone head vignette appears alongside a rosette underprint bearing the denomination numeral '1' and the legend 'UN PESO'. Red serial numbers and series letters are printed in letterpress across the note. |

| Reverse description | The central vignette reproduces a circular engraving of a Mexican Peso coin dated 1903, bearing the Republica Mexicana cap-and-rays motif with the legend 'REPUBLICA MEXICANA' and 'UN PESO M. 1903 A.M. 90G.' The field is framed by an elaborate geometric guilloche border with pre-Columbian stepped-fret decorative motifs at the corners. A dark banner at the foot of the note carries the circulation decree inscription in bold letterpress, and an oval revenue-style stamp appears at upper left. |
