| Reverse description | A balance scale, symbolizing justice, is depicted in the central field with a radiant Phrygian liberty cap surmounting the scales at top. Below the balance hangs a scroll inscribed with the word LEY (Law), crossed diagonally by a sword. The denomination, mint mark, assayer's initial, and silver fineness are inscribed along the lower periphery. The overall composition references the allegorical iconography of Liberty and Justice standard to the Mexican Republic's Reform-era coinage. |
