| Obverse description | The Mexican national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a Mexican golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus growing from a rocky outcrop, devouring a serpent; the scene is flanked on either side by a wreath of oak and laurel branches. The curved legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin characters. The entire design is enclosed within a toothed or beaded border running along the rim. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a bold sculptural depiction of Coyolxauhqui, the Aztec moon goddess, rendered in the style of the famous stone disk discovered at the Templo Mayor in Tenochtitlan. The denomination VEINTE PESOS appears in the lower portion of the field, accompanied by the date 1978 and the Mexico City Mint mark Mo. The design reflects the broader Mexican cultural numismatic series celebrating pre-Columbian heritage. |
