Obverse
In the obverse design element of 2021 Proof Mexican Libertad 5 oz Silver Coins is the modern coat of arms for Mexico. The design focuses on a golden eagle locked in battle to devour a rattlesnake. The two creatures are shown on the arm of a prickly pear cactus with an oak-and-laurel wreath beneath the design. Above is the inscription Estados Unidos Mexicanos. The design rim on this field comes with a ring of 10 historic versions of the Mexican coat of arms, the most significant of which is located at the 12 oclock position. This is a 1541 design from the Aztec Empire that inspired all previous versions of the Mexican national seal.
Reverse
