| Reverse description | The central field depicts a dramatic high-relief scene of a steam locomotive crossing a tall iron viaduct bridge set against a rugged Andean mountain gorge, rendered with fine engraving detail characteristic of proof coinage. The composition evokes the engineering achievement of the Central Transandean Railway. The circular legend 'CONSTRUCTOR DEL FERROCARRIL CENTRAL TRASANDINO' runs along the upper periphery, flanked by star stops. The birth and death years '1818 - 1899' are inscribed in the lower central field, and the honoree's name 'ERNESTO MALINOWSKI' appears along the lower border, also flanked by stars. |
