| Beschrijving keerzijde | The arms of the United States of Colombia occupy the central field, featuring a condor with spread wings perched atop a heraldic shield divided into three sections depicting a pomegranate, a cornucopia, and a Phrygian cap above a coastal scene, flanked by two crossed flags and lances. The motto LIBERTAD Y ORDEN appears on a ribbon across the shield. The surrounding circular legend reads 12,500 MEDIO PESO on the upper portion and G. MEDELLIN LEI 0,835 along the lower periphery, with star separators, indicating the weight in grams, denomination, mint city, and silver fineness respectively. A toothed border frames the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The United States of Colombia — the federated republic that governed the territory from 1863 to 1886 — operated under a constitutionally decentralized monetary system that allowed individual states to strike coinage under federal authorization. The 1868 half peso falls within a series plagued by inconsistent alloy control at the Bogotá mint, and examples from this period are occasionally found slightly below the stated fineness as a result of assay disputes between the mint and the national treasury.
KM#152 had a relatively short production window before the peso coinage was reorganized in the early 1870s.
