| Reverse description | A stylized, boldly coloured red portrait of Ernesto Che Guevara, rendered in the iconic graphic style derived from Alberto Korda's 1960 photograph, dominates the central field against a polished steel insert with a blue-sky background; the figure wears his characteristic beret bearing a five-pointed star. The name ERNESTO CHE GUEVARA arcs prominently along the upper rim. To the left of the portrait the Spanish legend LA REVOLUCIÓN is inscribed vertically in the field, while to the right the English quotation BETTER TO DIE STANDING THAN TO LIVE ON YOUR KNEES appears in stacked lines. The birth and death years 1928–1967 are inscribed along the lower rim. |
