Reverse description The reverse features a finely detailed high-relief rendering of a jaguar (Panthera onca) in a three-quarter profile, facing right with its head turned toward the viewer, standing on a rocky ground line that extends across the lower central field. The spotted coat is rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail by engraver René Baudichon. To the lower left, a small inscription reads '28.28 gram. Ley 925', denoting the coin's weight and silver fineness. The denomination '25 BOLIVARES' is inscribed in large characters along the lower portion of the field.
