| Aversbeschreibung | Two crowned Pillars of Hercules rising from waves, each wrapped with a banner inscribed with the motto PLUS VLTRA, flanked by the denomination numeral. The face value appears at top, with the mint name CARACAS and assayer initials at the bottom, along with the date. The overall design follows the colonial macuquina-inspired republican style adapted for the Gran Colombia period. |

Gran Colombia dissolved in 1830, the same year this coin was struck. Simón Bolívar died in December of that year, having already resigned the presidency in March — the republic he had spent decades building fragmented into Venezuela, Ecuador, and New Granada almost immediately after. A coin issued by Caracas in 1830 under the Gran Colombia name is an artifact of a state that had functionally ceased to exist before the year was out.
The .700 fineness was a reduction from earlier republican silver standards, reflecting chronic fiscal strain across the region throughout the 1820s.
