| Obverse description | Crowned national arms of the Mexican Republic, featuring the distinctive profile eagle — a heraldic variant employed exclusively on Republican coinage struck between 1823 and 1825, in which the eagle is depicted in profile rather than the later facing posture. The eagle stands upon a cactus rising from a rock in water, clutching a serpent in its beak. The circular legend REPUBLICA MEXICANA surrounds the central device within a beaded border. |
