Obverse description The Bolivian national arms displayed as an oval cartouche at centre, depicting a llama in a landscape beneath a radiant sun, enclosed by a laurel and olive wreath and surmounted by a condor with wings spread. Crossed Bolivian flags and military trophies — including rifles, cannons, and laurel branches — flank the shield on either side. A row of nine five-pointed stars arcs along the lower field. The circular legend REPUBLICA BOLIVIANA runs along the upper periphery, all within a beaded border.

Reverse description A wreath composed of laurel and oak branches, tied at the base with a ribbon bow, frames the central field. Within the wreath, the denomination is inscribed in two lines reading MEDIO Bo and 50 CENTs, separated from the fineness statement 9 Ds FINO below by a horizontal rule. The date appears in the exergue beneath the wreath. The national motto LA UNION ES LA FUERZA curves along the upper periphery, with the mint assayer initials positioned at the lower sides of the legend, all within a beaded border.
