| Obverse description | The obverse features the Mexican national coat of arms in high relief at center, depicting a Mexican golden eagle perched upon a prickly pear cactus growing from a rocky outcropping, devouring a serpent in its beak and talons, all within a wreath of oak and laurel branches tied with a ribbon at the base. The legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arcs along the upper periphery within a raised inner border. The outer border is decorated with a repeating stepped fret motif of pre-Columbian inspiration. Below the central emblem, the inscriptions 1 ONZA DE PLATA and LEY 0.999 appear in two lines, attesting to the coin's silver content and fineness. |
