The coat of arms of Mexico (Spanish: Escudo Nacional de México, literally "national shield of Mexico") depicts a Mexican (golden) eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus devouring a rattlesnake.[1] The design is rooted in the legend that the Aztec people would kno...w where to build their city once they saw an eagle eating a snake on top of a lake.[1] The image has been an important symbol of Mexican politics and culture for centuries.

Excellent condition.
