| Obverse description | The Mexican national arms occupy the centre gold field, depicting the iconic eagle displayed in left profile, perched upon a cactus rising from a rocky islet amid water, with a serpent clutched in its beak and talon. The design is rendered in high-relief proof finish, with the gold centre contrasting sharply against the outer silver ring. An ornamental wreath of oak and laurel frames the lower portion of the arms. The encircling legend reads ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS along the upper periphery of the silver ring. |

| Reverse description | The gold centre field features a stylized profile portrait of Pakal the Great, the ancient Maya king of Palenque, rendered in a manner closely inspired by the carved jade funerary mask discovered in his tomb. The effigy faces left, with characteristic Maya artistic conventions including a pronounced sloping forehead and elaborate headdress elements. The mintmark 'Mo' and date '2006' appear in the field to the left of the portrait, while the denomination '$100' is positioned to the right. The outer silver ring bears the inscriptions identifying the state and subject matter, arranged along the upper and lower periphery. |
