Reverse description A finely detailed effigy of a Horned Guan (Oreophasis derbianus) is depicted in left profile, perched on a rocky branch amid a naturalistic landscape of foliage and mountains rendered in the background field. The bird's distinctive scaled plumage and characteristic posture are rendered in high relief against the mirror-polished proof field. The legend PAVO DE CACHO arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination UN QUETZAL curves along the lower border. Decorative parallel line motifs flank the central design on both sides.
