Beschrijving keerzijde The elaborate imperial arms of the Second Mexican Empire occupy the central field: an oval shield bearing a Mexican eagle devouring a serpent, supported by two rampant griffins flanking the shield, with a sword and sceptre crossed behind. The achievement is surmounted by a large imperial crown. Scrollwork and foliate ornaments fill the lower field. The upper legend reads IMPERIO MEXICANO along the beaded border, while the denomination 1 PESO and date 1866 Mo appear in the lower field to left and right respectively.

Aanvullende informatie

Maximilian I authorized pattern coinage throughout his short reign as the French-installed emperor of Mexico, using trial strikes to evaluate designs and legends before committing to full production runs. This copper piece was almost certainly struck at the Mexico City mint, which continued operating under imperial authority despite persistent republican resistance led by Juárez in the north. The large-letters designation distinguishes it from concurrent small-letters trials — a die variation that reflects genuine indecision about the final specification rather than any accidental difference.

Maximilian was executed by firing squad in June 1867, less than a year after this pattern was struck.
