| Obverse description | At center, the Mexican national arms rendered within a D-shaped recessed field: an eagle displayed left, perched on a cactus issuing from a rocky islet, grasping a serpent in its beak and talons, surrounded by an oak and laurel wreath. The legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arcs along the upper periphery within the decorated border. Below the central device, in the lower flat band, the inscription I ONZA DE PLATA appears on one line and LEY 0.999 on a second line. The entire design is framed by a raised decorative border composed of a repeating series of small square Aztec-style glyph ornaments. |

| Reverse description | At center within a D-shaped recessed field, a detailed rendering of the Aztec sculpture of Huehueteotl, the aged god of fire, depicted as a seated elderly figure wearing an elaborate headdress and ornamental necklace, his hands resting forward in a frontal pose, faithfully reproducing the pre-Columbian stone original. The date 1993 appears in the left field and the mint assayer mark Mo is visible at the right. The legend HUEHUETEOTL is inscribed in the lower flat band immediately below the central device, and the denomination N$5 appears beneath it near the bottom rim. The outer border mirrors the obverse, consisting of a continuous ring of raised Aztec-style glyph ornaments. |
