| Reverse description | Facing bust portrait of General Augusto César Sandino dominates the central field, depicted wearing his characteristic wide-brimmed campesino hat and a knotted neckerchief, rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. The legend GRAL. AUGUSTO C. SANDINO curves along the lower periphery in bold raised letters. The commemorative inscription 1934 · 50 ANIVERSARIO · 1984 arcs around the upper border, recording the fiftieth anniversary of Sandino's death, with the dates 1934 and 1984 flanking the central text. |
