Reverse description The central device depicts a large stylized representation of an ancient indigenous petroglyph or pre-Columbian stone carving, rendered in high relief and occupying the majority of the field; the design evokes the island's Arawak heritage and is divided by radiating lines suggesting a sunburst or fan motif. Surrounding the central device, the commemorative legend 'TRADITION WITH VISION' arcs along the upper periphery in bold raised capitals. The date range '1499 - 1999' is inscribed along the lower periphery, marking the five-hundred-year span from the European discovery of Aruba to the coin's issue year. Two small mint marks flank the date at the lower left and lower right.
