I’m probably getting carried away a bit, so please accept my apologies. Nonetheless, here’s a good piece on th evolution of Mexican coin design.

The reference to Popocatepetl and Iztacchiuatl is to two volcanos that surround Mexico City. They look like a man and a woman lying horizontally. Long story short, they are the Aztec versions of Romeo and Juliet.
