Obverse description The Mexican national arms occupy the central field, depicting an eagle passant perched upon a prickly pear cactus rising from a lake, holding a serpent in its beak. The device is encircled by a wreath composed of laurel and oak branches tied at the base. The legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arcs along the upper periphery in Latin characters. The overall design reflects the classical republican heraldic style adopted by Mexico in the early twentieth century.

The date is inscribed in the lower field below the denomination. A wreath of oak and laurel branches frames the lower portion of the design, lending a classical decorative border to the composition.
