| Obverse description | The Mexican national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a Mexican golden eagle with wings displayed, perched upon a prickly pear cactus growing from a rocky outcrop, devouring a serpent held in its beak and right talon. The base of the cactus is flanked by a wreath of oak and laurel branches tied with a ribbon. The circular legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS runs along the upper periphery in raised Latin characters. |

| Reverse description | A left-facing portrait bust of President Benito Juárez in high relief occupies the central field, rendered in a formal civic style. The denomination DIEZ CENTAVOS appears above the portrait, while the mint mark Mo and the date are inscribed below, flanking the truncation of the bust. The design is austere and unadorned, in keeping with the republican tradition of Mexican coinage of this period. |
