The 1929 M Twenty Centavos uses the same obverse design as the 1907 - 1928 Twenty Centavos and was struck to the same specifications. Unlike the 1928 M Twenty Centavos Mule which used an altered Five Centavos reverse die the 1929 M Twenty Centavos used the same regular Twenty Centavos reverse that was used on the 1907 - 1921 Twenty Centavos. The 1929 M Twenty Centavos is distinguished from the 1920 (M) and 1921 (M) Twenty Centavos by the "M" Mint Mark on the reverse to the left of the date.
