| Obverse description | The Dominican Republic national coat of arms is depicted in the central field, featuring a quartered shield supported by a laurel branch to the left and a palm frond to the right, with a ribbon below inscribed REPUBLICA DOMINICANA. To the left of the arms, the large numeral '1' appears in bold relief, and the denomination PESO is inscribed in the lower field. The legend REPUBLICA DOMINICANA curves along the right periphery. A small mint mark device appears at the bottom of the field below the arms. The coin exhibits a deeply mirrored proof finish with frosted devices. |

| Reverse description | Two standing figures occupy the central field: Christopher Columbus, depicted in full Renaissance attire with a cape and breeches, faces a lightly clad indigenous figure who leans toward him in a posture of encounter and interaction. The composition conveys the moment of first contact between the Old and New Worlds. The circumferential legend V CENTENARIO DEL DESCUBRIMIENTO Y EVANGELIZACION DE AMERICA curves around the upper periphery, while COLON MUESTRA EXCELENTE is inscribed in the lower field, flanked by the date 1990 between two stars at the very bottom. |
