| Reverse description | Central field displays the distinctive cursive monogram of José María Morelos, rendered as an interlaced 'Mo' cipher in raised relief within a dotted or beaded border. Beneath the monogram, the denomination and date are inscribed in three lines: •8•R• and •1813•. The lettering is crude and characteristic of the hand-engraved dies used for this insurgent emergency coinage, with an uneven field surface resulting from the casting process. |
