| Reverse description | The denomination DOS DECIMOS is displayed prominently within a laurel wreath at the center of the field, flanked on either side by a caduceus — the winged staff entwined with serpents — serving as decorative and symbolic elements. The mint name BOGOTA is inscribed in the upper legend above the wreath, while the fineness statement LEI 0.900 appears below, confirming the coin's silver standard. The overall composition is neatly arranged in a symmetrical, typographic style consistent with Colombian decimal coinage of the 1850s. |
