Reverse description The central field, enclosed by a raised inner circle, features the large bold numeral denomination 2 1/2 occupying most of the space, with the date 1885 positioned in the exergue below. The legend DOS I MEDIO CENTAVOS arcs around the upper periphery of the annular field, employing the archaic conjunction 'I' in place of the modern 'Y'. The design is stark and typographic in character, with no additional ornamental elements, consistent with the utilitarian copper coinage of the period.
