| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a pre-Columbian gold vessel — a poporo (lime container) of the Quimbaya culture — rendered in high relief at the center of the field, serving as the emblem of the Museo del Oro. The founding year '1923' appears to the left of the artifact and '1973' to the right, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Banco de la República. The legend 'MUSEO DEL ORO' is inscribed in a curved line beneath the vessel, while 'BANCO DE LA REPUBLICA' arcs around the lower periphery. A beaded inner border frames the entire composition. |
