| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large right-facing bust of General José de San Martín, the Argentine national hero and liberator, rendered in high relief and occupying the majority of the coin's field. The portrait is notably larger than on earlier issues of this type, lending the design a bold, imposing character. The legend 'JOSE DE SAN MARTIN' is inscribed in two segments along the left and right periphery, framing the effigy. |
