| Reverse description | The denomination 'UN DECIMO' is inscribed in two lines within the central field, enclosed by a wreath of laurel and oak branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DE CHILE' runs along the upper periphery, while the fineness indicator '0.5' and mint mark 'So' appear to the right, outside the wreath. The overall composition is symmetrical and typical of Chilean coinage of the period produced at the Santiago Mint. |
