The silver-toned middle ring displays Mayan numerical notation rendered as dots and bars arranged in cardinal positions around the central motif, with the legend NUMERACIÓN MAYA arcing along the upper portion. The copper-nickel outer border is divided into rectangular panels each bearing a distinct Mayan deity or day-sign head in relief.
