| Obverse description | The national arms of Bolivia occupy the central field, featuring the shield with its customary emblems flanked by Bolivian flags and laurel branches at the base. A continuous circular legend surrounds the arms, incorporating the official state designation adopted under the 2009 constitution. A single star appears at the base of the legend, below the arms. The design reflects the constitutional renaming of the country to the Plurinational State of Bolivia. |

Bolivia's shift to copper-clad steel for this denomination in 2010 was part of a broader regional response to rising raw material costs that had made the metal content of small-circulation coins approach or exceed their face value — a problem that had already pushed neighbors like Argentina and Brazil into similar alloy substitutions years earlier.
