Additional information

In 1950, the Mexican Mint struck a small number of pattern pieces exploring design alternatives for the 5 Peso denomination ahead of the series that would enter circulation the following year. The "full wreath" designation distinguishes this piece from related patterns where the reverse wreath was left incomplete or truncated — a deliberate variable tested across multiple dies during that development cycle.

Patterns from Casa de Moneda de México in this period are notoriously difficult to census with confidence, as official mintage records for trial pieces were inconsistently preserved.
