| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicts the Mexican republican eagle standing left, devouring a serpent, rendered in low relief on a plain field. The legend E. L. DE MORELOS (Estado Libre de Morelos) arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script. The overall striking quality is characteristic of emergency revolutionary coinage, with a somewhat crude but purposeful execution typical of Zapatista issues of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination numeral 20 is prominently displayed in the center of the field, flanked on either side by sprigs of laurel or olive forming a wreath-like arrangement at the base. The date 1915 is inscribed in the upper portion of the field. A dotted border runs along the inner edge of the rim, a decorative feature consistent with other Morelos revolutionary emergency coinage. The overall design is simple and utilitarian, reflecting the improvised nature of currency production during the Mexican Revolution. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The State of Morelos issued copper coinage in 1915 under the authority of the Zapatista movement, one of the few revolutionary factions in Mexico that actually produced its own circulating currency rather than relying on paper promises. Zapata's forces controlled the region with enough administrative coherence to operate a mint, though the operation was rudimentary and dies were cut locally under difficult conditions.
Strike quality varies dramatically across surviving specimens — not as a general grading observation, but because the Morelos mint lacked consistent hydraulic pressure and experienced die failures mid-run. KM#701 pieces from worn or cracked dies are well documented.
