| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Mexican national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a Mexican golden eagle passant perched upon a prickly-pear cactus growing from a rock rising from a lake, devouring a serpent in its beak. The eagle is shown in high relief with finely engraved feather detailing and wings partially spread. A wreath of oak and laurel branches, tied at the base, frames the lower portion of the device. The arc legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS curves along the upper periphery in Latin characters, with a notched or serrated inner border encircling the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pattern coinage from the Mexican Mint in 1947 occupies a peculiar corner of numismatic history — this was a period when Mexico was actively reconsidering its silver coinage denominations following the economic disruptions of the war years. The "Balance" designation refers to the balance scale device used as part of the design program, a motif associated with proposed coinage that never entered regular circulation.
Patterns of this type exist in very small quantities, produced for internal evaluation rather than public release. The Pradeau reference (PL#18) places it firmly within the documented trial series, though surviving examples surface rarely enough that population data remains thin.
