| Reverse description | The denomination 'UN REAL' is inscribed in two lines across the central field, with 'UN' above 'REAL' in bold raised letters. A circular legend reading 'CARACAS AÑO 2 DE LA REPCA.' runs around the periphery, denoting Caracas as the issuing authority and recording the second year of the Republic. Some specimens display a dot in the centre of the field between the two lines of the denomination, constituting a recognised die variety. The reverse is enclosed by a beaded border consistent with the obverse, and the overall execution reflects the rudimentary hand-struck technique employed during this period of revolutionary coinage. |
