| Reverse description | A pair of hands playing a traditional Candombe drum (tamboril) occupies the central field, depicted in detailed relief with applied color. The UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) logos appear in the field. A curved inscription commemorating the UNESCO recognition runs along the lower portion of the field, while the date '2017' flanked by two five-pointed stars is positioned at the top, superimposed over the event designation. The overall composition emphasizes the drum as the emblematic instrument of the Candombe tradition. |
