| Reverse description | Highly detailed high-relief depiction of Quetzalcoatl rendered as a richly adorned anthropomorphic figure in three-quarter view, wearing an elaborate feathered headdress with Mesoamerican iconographic ornaments, a pectoral necklace, and symbolic body decorations. The feathered serpent deity emerges dramatically to the left of the central figure, its scaled coils wrapping around a spherical orb held outstretched, with its fanged head bearing a feathered crest visible in the upper field. Mesoamerican step pyramids are rendered in low relief across the background field. A decorative cartouche in the lower portion of the coin bears the inscription 'QUETZALCOATL' in raised Latin lettering. The entire design is executed with coloured antiqued finishing, highlighting the intricate sculptural detail. |
