Obverse description Central device depicts a Maya ball player (jugador de pelota) rendered in relief, derived from Classic Maya sculptural iconography, shown in dynamic posture with elaborate ceremonial attire including a protective hip yoke and headdress. The numeral '20' appears prominently in the left field, partially overlapping the central figure. The legend 'CULTURA MAYA' arcs along the upper periphery within a decorated border of stylized Maya glyphic motifs, while '20 PESOS' and the date '1980' are inscribed in the lower field, with the mint mark 'Mo' below. The overall design is framed by a raised rim and an inner circle separating the legend border from the central field.
