At left, a seated Liberty vignette holds a plaque in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.

Reverse description Printed in green with intricate guilloche rosette work covering the entire field, with dollar-sign corner ornaments at all four corners. A large central vignette shows the reverse of a one-peso coin — the Mexican sunstone / radiant sun motif — enclosed within concentric guilloche borders. Two circular red official seals, bearing the legend SECRETARIA DE HACIENDA and GOBIERNO DE LA REPUBLICA MEXICANA, are applied over the left and right sections respectively. Lettering is set within rectangular guilloche cartouches flanking the central coin vignette.
