| Obverse description | The Mexican national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a Mexican golden eagle perched upon a prickly pear cactus and devouring a rattlesnake, as derived from the Aztec founding legend of Tenochtitlan. The device is flanked at the base by a holm oak (encina) branch on the left and a laurel branch on the right, symbolizing strength and victory respectively. The circular legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arcs above the central device along the upper periphery. |
