| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in brown on cream paper. A large central circular vignette contains the Mexican eagle — an intaglio engraving of a perched eagle with wings spread atop a cactus with a serpent, derived from the national coat of arms — set within an elaborate geometric guilloche border. The words 'LONDRES' and 'Y MEXICO' are rendered in bold serif lettering to the left and right of the central vignette respectively, flanked by four corner medallions each bearing the numeral '20'. 'BANCO DE' appears in a cartouche at the top centre, and the printer's imprint 'AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY, NEW YORK' is inscribed at both top and bottom margins. |
