Surrounding it are 10 historic variations of the emblem used throughout Mexicos history. Inscriptions include ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS.

Reverse

The reverse design of 2015 Libertad 1 Kilo Silver Coins features two strong symbols of Mexican culture. In the background are the mountains Popocatpetl and Iztacchuatl, drawn from Aztec lore.

History

Mexicos coat of arms traces back to an Aztec legend featuring an eagle and serpent on a cactus. Since its adoption in 1821, the seal has appeared in many forms that reflected the political climate of the time. Some versions leaned toward European traditions with crowns and detailed flourishes, while others highlighted indigenous influences. The design finalized in 1968 shows a golden eagle perched on a cactus over water, grasping a snake in its talons and beak.
