| Description du revers |
The reverse presents a left-facing draped bust of a native female allegory, wearing an elaborate feathered headdress with her hair styled in curled locks falling to the neck, evoking the indigenous identity of the island. The figure is depicted in a classical engraving style typical of late 19th-century French mint work. The circular legend '20 CENTAVOS' arcs along the left and upper periphery, while the date '1897' appears along the right side. Small decorative dots punctuate the legend at intervals, and a fine toothed border frames the entire design. |
