Reverse description A detailed three-quarter perspective view of the colonial church of Nuestra Señora del Carmen is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The building complex features a polygonal stone tower with arched windows to the left, a central nave with a barred entrance, and a domed bell tower with classical columns to the right, faithfully reproducing the historic colonial architecture of Santo Domingo. The curved legend IGLESIAS COLONIALES arcs along the upper periphery, while NUESTRA SEÑORA DEL CARMEN curves along the lower portion of the coin, completing the identification of the depicted monument.
