| Obverse description | The Chilean national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a quartered shield bearing a five-pointed star, supported on the left by a huemul deer and on the right by a condor with spread wings, both figures rendered in fine relief. Above the shield rises an ornate plumed crest. A scroll below the shield bears the national motto POR LA RAZON O LA FUERZA. The date 1968 appears to the left of the shield, and the mint mark So is incorporated within the legend. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE CHILE arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 200 PESOS is inscribed in large characters at the base, all within a beaded border. |

| Reverse description | A dynamic commemorative scene depicts two mounted officers in military uniform and campaign hats traversing a rugged Andean mountain pass, their horses moving left across rocky terrain. Additional figures on foot are visible in the middle ground to the right, set against a backdrop of dramatic mountain peaks and a partly clouded sky, all rendered in fine engraved relief against a mirror-polished proof field. The circular legend PASO·DE·LOS·ANDES · EJERCITO·LIBERTADOR · arcs around the upper and lateral periphery, while the commemorative dates 1817-1967 are inscribed along the lower border, the whole enclosed within a beaded rim. |
