Obverse description	The obverse is divided into three distinct vignette zones across the horizontal format. At left center, an oval portrait vignette shows a bearded gentleman in formal attire, framed by ornate engraved borders. The central upper area carries a detailed landscape vignette of a building amid tropical vegetation and mountains, above the bold cursive legend 'Estados Unidos de Colombia' and the denomination 'UN PESO' in large display type. Numerals '1' appear in decorative cartouches at the upper-left and upper-right corners, while a circular coat-of-arms vignette occupies the lower-right, with the place of issue 'BOGOTÁ' inscribed at the top margin.
