| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a stepped Mayan pyramid (resembling El Castillo at Chichen Itza) in high relief set within the upper field, flanked by stylized vegetation. Below the pyramid, a multi-line inscribed text occupies the central field, and a decorative Mayan-style serpent or feathered motif appears in the lower field. The entire design is enclosed by an ornamental border of Mayan glyphic devices. |
