| Obverse description | The Bolivian national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting an oval shield bearing a llama on a hillside beneath a radiant sun, flanked by two Bolivian flags and two crossed cannons with cannonballs on either side. A condor with outstretched wings perches atop the shield. The circumferential legend REPUBLICA BOLIVIANA runs along the upper periphery in Latin script, flanked by a border of beads, with a row of five-pointed stars arranged along the lower arc. |
