Third bust, heavy, with short unfinished lapels
Interesting fact
The 5 Pesos coin from the State of Oaxaca in 1915 features a unique design element - a short, unfinished lapel on the coat of arms, which was a deliberate decision made by the mint to reflect the country's political instability at the time.
