| Reverse description | A globe rendered in a grid-line pattern dominates the central field, upon which the outlined map of Peru is depicted on the left side with the numeral '150' and the word 'años' superimposed upon it. To the right, a finely detailed Chinese imperial dragon is shown in high relief, its sinuous body coiling upward with clawed feet and a mane of flames. The dates 1849-1999 appear in the lower portion of the globe. The outer legend, reading in Latin script along the lower periphery, commemorates the sesquicentennial of Chinese immigration to Peru, while a Chinese-character inscription arcs across the upper border of the coin. |
