| Obverse description | Within the field, the denomination numeral '1' appears above the legend 'CENTAVO' and the date '1863', all set within a wreath of two olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The wreath branches curve symmetrically upward, adorned with detailed leaves and berry clusters, meeting at the top of the design. The entire composition is enclosed by a raised beaded border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse repeats the obverse design identically, as befitting a reverse trial piece: the denomination numeral '1' is positioned above the inscription 'CENTAVO' and the date '1863' at centre, all enclosed within a symmetrical wreath of two olive branches with finely rendered leaves and berry clusters, tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The field is plain and the design is contained within a raised beaded border. This uniface-type trial demonstrates the proposed reverse design for the 1863 Venezuelan centavo coinage. |
