| Obverse description | The obverse presents an open wreath of olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow, enclosing the denomination numeral '1' above the inscription 'CENTAVO' and the date '1852' in the field below. The legend in Latin characters reads '1 CENTAVO 1852', centrally arranged within the wreath. The border is composed of a continuous inner ring of beading. The design is entirely typographic and heraldic in nature, with no portrait or allegorical figure, consistent with its character as a reverse trial piece. |

The overall composition is purely typographic, devoid of any effigy or symbolic imagery, reflecting its status as a reverse trial strike produced to assess die quality and design layout. |
