Reverse description A detailed depiction of the pre-Columbian archaeological site of Cabeza de Vaca, located in Tumbes, Peru, fills the central field, showing its characteristic stone terraces, walls, and ceremonial structures rendered in fine relief. The large numeral '1' appears to the left of the central scene, with the mint monogram 'LM' to the right, both set against a background of parallel horizontal lines. The legend CABEZA DE VACA / S. XV - S. XVI d.C. is inscribed in the upper portion of the octagonal inner border, identifying the site and its historical period spanning the 15th to 16th centuries AD. The denomination 1 Sol is integrated into the overall design.
