| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, finely engraved portrait bust of Ugedei Khan (1186–1242), second Great Khan of the Mongol Empire and son of Genghis Khan, facing slightly left. The effigy depicts him wearing a traditional Mongolian hat, with a distinctive moustache and goatee beard rendered in high relief against a polished proof field. A vertical Traditional Mongolian script inscription appears to the left of the portrait. The Latin legend 'UGEDEI KHAN 1186–1242' is inscribed in the lower field, with the Mexican Mint mark 'Mo' visible in the upper right. The rim is bordered by an ornamental pattern of stylised floral and geometric motifs in Traditional Mongolian decorative style. |

| Additional information |
Ögedei Khan, third son of Chinggis and the first Great Khan to rule a fully consolidated Mongol Empire, oversaw the destruction of the Jin dynasty and authorized the westward campaigns that reached Poland and Hungary in 1241. Mongolia's 1990s commemorative gold program — launched in the years immediately following the end of Soviet-aligned rule — was a deliberate act of national cultural reclamation, reaching back to the imperial 13th century for subjects that communist-era numismatics had largely suppressed.
