| Obverse description | The Mexican national arms occupy the central field, depicting the celebrated eagle displayed in left profile, perched upon a prickly pear cactus growing from a rocky islet, and devouring a serpent clasped in its beak and talons. The device is flanked by an ornamental wreath of oak and laurel branches tied at the base. A fine beaded border encircles the design, and the arc legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS runs along the upper periphery in raised Latin characters. |

| Reverse description | A bold facing bust of Emiliano Zapata, the celebrated Mexican revolutionary leader, dominates the central field, rendered in high relief. He is depicted wearing his characteristic wide-brimmed sombrero, with a prominent moustache and a cartridge bandolier across his chest. The denomination $50,000 appears in large numerals at the upper left of the field, with the mint mark Mo superscript above the letter M at centre left. The inscription EMILIANO ZAPATA is engraved in two lines to the lower left of the portrait, and the date 1990 is positioned to the lower right. The reverse is framed by a toothed inner border. |
