Reverse description Radiant Phrygian liberty cap centered in the field, symbolizing freedom and the nascent Mexican Republic. Surrounding the central device are the denominational and assay details, including the value 8R, the Durango mint mark Do, the date 1824, the assayers' initials RL, and the fineness statement 10Ds 20Gs (10 dineros 20 granos, equivalent to .903 fine silver). Multiple die varieties are known for this issue, distinguished by the depiction of the serpent (defiant, submissive, or folded) and the size of the LIBERTAD inscription. A beaded border frames the entire reverse design.
