| Reverse description | The elaborate imperial coat of arms of the Second Mexican Empire occupies the central field, featuring an oval escutcheon displaying the Mexican eagle perched on a cactus devouring a serpent, surmounted by an imperial crown. The shield is supported on the left by a griffin and on the right by a lion, each holding a lance and a standard respectively. A decorative scroll below the shield bears the motto EQUIDAD EN LA JUSTICIA. The legend IMPERIO MEXICANO arcs above, while the denomination 20 PESOS, the date 1866, and the mint mark Mo appear in the lower field. The design is framed by a beaded border. |
