1957 Mexico 1 Peso Banknote
This nice banknote brings on its obverse center a depiction of the reknown Aztec or Nahua stone calendar. This archaeological item is one of the most studied museum pieces of the World. It was an attempt to organize the century in 52 years rounds or cycles. The intriguing piece is part of the Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City collections.
The note's reverse shows in a light red hue the Angel of Independence pillar and statue also located in the Mexican capital, a revered icon of Mexican culture and politics.
The banknote I present here still has a nice texture and, its coloring and printed elements are basically intact being a bill from 1957.
In my own words.
