| Obverse description | The Mexican national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a Mexican golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus growing from a rocky outcrop amid water, devouring a serpent in its beak and talons. The design is rendered in the modern style introduced in the mid-20th century, with detailed feather work and naturalistic foliage including oak and laurel branches framing the base. The legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin characters. A decorative beaded or chain-link border runs along the inner rim of the coin. |
