Obverse description The Bolivian national arms displayed within an oval cartouche surmounted by a condor, flanked by crossed flags and weapons to either side. Stars are arranged below the shield, and the country name is inscribed in a curved legend along both sides of the design. The arms are rendered in the classical republican heraldic style characteristic of mid-nineteenth-century South American coinage.
