| Obverse description | The central field features the Peruvian national coat of arms — comprising a shield quartered with a vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia, surmounted by a civic wreath — rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. Surrounding the central device, arrayed in a circular composition across the broader field, are miniature reproductions of the national coat of arms or emblematic coin designs of various Ibero-American nations, each individually detailed. The circular legend BANCO CENTRAL DE RESERVA DEL PERÚ arcs across the upper and right portions of the inner rim, while the denomination UN NUEVO SOL and the date 2007 appear in the lower portion of the inner legend band. |

| Additional information |
The Ibero-American coin program, launched in 1991 through a cooperative agreement between the mints of Spain, Portugal, and their former colonial territories, produces annual themed series struck simultaneously across member nations. Peru has participated consistently, with each country issuing its own design under a shared reverse. The 2007 Olympic theme preceded Lima's ultimately successful 2019 Pan American Games bid by over a decade — at the time of striking, Peru had no major games on the horizon.
