| Obverse description | Central field displays the Mexican national coat of arms — an eagle with wings spread, perched upon a cactus growing from a rocky outcrop, devouring a serpent in its beak. The design follows the established republican heraldic tradition. The curved legend REPUBLICA MEXICANA arcs along the upper periphery of the coin. |

| Reverse description | A bold, large numeral '50' dominates the central field, with the date 1915 positioned above surmounting a decorative crown-like ornament. The Zapatista revolutionary motto arcs around the periphery in two lines, with CENTAVOS inscribed in the lower field beneath the large denomination numeral. The die work is characteristic of the roughly produced revolutionary-era emergency coinage of Morelos. |
