Obverse description Bare-headed bust of Francisco de Paula Santander facing right, rendered in moderate relief with naturalistic detail to the hair and facial features. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE COLOMBIA runs continuously around the upper periphery without a gap, executed in small Latin capital letters. A beaded border encircles the entire design. The date appears in the lower field below the portrait, flanked by the beaded inner border.

Reverse description The denomination numeral 20 is prominently displayed in large, boldly incised figures at the centre of the field, with the inscription CENTAVOS in smaller capital letters immediately below. The central device is flanked by two symmetrical laurel branches that curve upward from a tied base at the lower exergue, their leafy sprays extending to either side in a wreath-like arrangement. A beaded border frames the entire reverse design. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, with the denomination as the dominant visual element.
