Obverse description The national coat of arms of Peru is displayed prominently in the central field, depicting a vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia within a quartered shield. Encircling the arms is the legend 'BANCO CENTRAL DE RESERVA DEL PERÚ' along the upper periphery, with the year of issue '2024' positioned below. The design is framed by an incuse octagonal geometric border that delineates the inner field from the coin's edge.

Additional information

This piece belongs to Peru's ongoing "Riqueza y Orgullo del Perú" circulation series, which the Banco Central de Reserva has used since 2010 to rotate commemorative reverse designs through standard denominations. The Formative Period theme references the pre-Columbian societies of roughly 1800–200 BCE that developed early ceremonial architecture and ceramic traditions along the Peruvian coast and highlands — Chavín de Huántar being the most studied center of this phase.
