| Obverse description | Right-facing bust of an indigenous Peruvian woman, her hair elaborately braided and adorned with flowers, wearing a large circular earring. The circular legend REPUBLICA PERUANA arcs along the upper periphery, while the date written in full Spanish text — MIL NOVECIENTOS CUARENTA Y TRES (or the respective year) — curves along the lower periphery. The design is rendered in a bold, high-relief style typical of early twentieth-century Peruvian coinage, with a dentilated border encircling the entire obverse field. |
