| Obverse lettering | EL GRAN CIUDADANO DE BOLIVIA (Translation: To the great citizen of Bolivia) |
| Reverse description | Central device depicting an open book bearing inscribed text, resting upon crossed palm and laurel branches tied at the base, symbolic of constitutional law and civic achievement. The branches are rendered in fine relief, framing the book in a wreath-like arrangement. A peripheral legend encircles the entire design, referencing the Bolivian Constitution of 1868. A small decorative star appears within the legend as a punctuation element. The overall composition is characteristic of Bolivian commemorative coinage of the Melgarejo era. |
