Obverse description	Black intaglio print on white paper. A central oval vignette contains an anchor and quetzal bird motif, flanked symmetrically by two steam locomotives in landscape vignettes. Guilloche underprint across the lower half carries a ribbon bearing the promise text, with the denomination CINCO PESOS in bold letterpress below. Portrait medallions of classical female busts appear at lower left and right corners.
