===Second peso=== ====Series B==== In 1993, notes were introduced in the new currency for 10, 20, 50, and 100 nuevos pesos. These notes are designated series B by the Bank of Mexico (''Banco de México'').<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/b-type-banknotes-in-the-proce.html |title=B-type banknotes in the process of being withdrawn from circulation |publisher=Banco de México |access-date=25 April 2022 |archive-date=1 July 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220701111812/https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/b-type-banknotes-in-the-proce.html |url-status=live }}</ref> (This series designation is not the 1 or 2 letter series label printed on the banknotes themselves.) All were printed with the date July 31, 1992.

The word "nuevos" remained, and banknotes in denominations of 200 and 500 nuevos pesos were added.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/c-type-banknotes-in-the-proce.html |title=C-type banknotes in the process of being withdrawn from circulation |publisher=Banco de México |access-date=25 April 2022 |archive-date=1 July 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220701114948/https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/c-type-banknotes-in-the-proce.html |url-status=live }}</ref> The 500 nuevos pesos note was worth more than [[United States dollar|US$]]100 when it was introduced, but its value dropped to almost equal to $100 by the end of 1994. {|class="wikitable" style="font-size: 95%" ! rowspan="2" |Value ! rowspan="2" |Dimensions<br>(millimeters) ! colspan="2" |Design ! colspan="2" rowspan=2|Date of issue |- !

It is a modified version of Series C with the word "nuevos" dropped, the bank title changed from "El Banco de México" to "Banco de México" and the clause "pagará a la vista al portador" (''Pay at sight to the bearer'') removed.<ref name=D-withdrawal>{{cite web |url=https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/d-type-banknotes-in-the-proce.html |title=D-type banknotes in the process of being withdrawn from circulation |publisher=Banco de México |access-date=25 April 2022 |archive-date=1 July 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220701100413/https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/d-type-banknotes-in-the-proce.html |url-status=live }}</ref> While series D includes the $10 note and is still legal tender, they are no longer printed, are seldom seen, and the coin is more common. $10 notes are rarely found in circulation. There are several printed dates for each denomination. In 2000, a commemorative series was issued which was based on Series D with the additional text "75 aniversario 1925-2000" under the bank title, which refers to the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the Bank.<ref name=D-withdrawal/> Starting from 2001, each denomination in the series was updated. MXN $50, $100, $200, and $500 were the first to be upgraded starting from October 15, 2001; in an effort to combat counterfeiting, these notes were modified with the addition of an iridescent strip.<ref name=D1-security>{{cite web |url=https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/d/%7B3DE9144A-B0EB-7B2F-0B0B-7092CFB3C897%7D.pdf |title=Summary of security features in banknotes belonging to Types D and D1 |publisher=Banco de México |date=June 2018 |access-date=29 April 2022 |archive-date=29 April 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220429155010/https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/d/%7B3DE9144A-B0EB-7B2F-0B0B-7092CFB3C897%7D.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref> On notes of 100 pesos and greater, the denomination is printed in color-shifting ink in the top right corner.<ref name=D1-security/> On September 30, 2002, a new $20 note was introduced.

The Bank of Mexico refers to these upgraded banknotes during this wave of change as "Series D1".<ref name=D1-withdrawal>{{cite web |url=https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/d1-type-banknotes-the-process.html |title=D1-type banknotes in the process of being withdrawn from circulation |publisher=Banco de México |access-date=25 April 2022 |archive-date=29 April 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220429151130/https://www.banxico.org.mx/banknotes-and-coins/d1-type-banknotes-the-process.html |url-status=live }}</ref> {|class="wikitable" style="font-size: 95%" |+Series D ! rowspan="2" | Value !!rowspan="2"| Dimensions<br>(millimeters)!!rowspan="2"| Main Color !!colspan="2"| Design !!colspan="3"| Dates of |- !

The 100-peso denomination note commemorates the centennial of the Beginning of the [[Mexican Revolution]] (1910–1920). The 200-peso denomination note commemorates the bicentennial of the start of the Mexican War for Independence which began in 1810. There was a printing error in the $100 notes, in the small letters (almost unnoticeable, as they are very small and the same color as the waving lines), near the top right corner, just above the transparent corn, from the side of the "La Revolución contra la dictadura Porfiriana", it is written: "Sufragio electivo y no reelección" (Elective suffrage and no reelection), this supposed to be a quote to Francisco I. Madero's famous phrase, but he said "Sufragio efectivo no reelección" (Valid Suffrage, No Reelection). President [[Felipe Calderón]] made a newspaper announcement in which he apologized for this, and said that the notes were going to continue in circulation, and that they would retain their value.<ref>[http://banknotenews.com/files/6afc8db330150b9706f0b42a4d739d71-895.php Mexico 100-peso commemorative has error] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110625033545/http://banknotenews.com/files/6afc8db330150b9706f0b42a4d739d71-895.php |date=2011-06-25 }}, BanknoteNews.com.
