| 裏面の説明 | Central field bears a bare-headed left-facing bust of Simón Bolívar, the Liberator, rendered in fine neoclassical style by the engraver Désiré-Albert Barre. The portrait is executed with careful attention to facial features and natural hair, displaying Bolívar in civilian dress with a high collar. The legend 'BOLIVAR' arcs along the left field and 'LIBERTADOR' along the right field, both reading vertically alongside the portrait. The engraver's signature 'BARRE' appears in small capitals along the lower exergual line. The reverse is bordered by a beaded rim consistent with the obverse. |

Venezuela's silver coinage of the 1950s was minted almost entirely under contract in Philadelphia, a consequence of the Marcos Pérez Jiménez dictatorship's preference for consistent technical quality over domestic production capacity. The Caracas mint had effectively ceased operating as a meaningful production facility by this period, leaving the U.S. Mint to supply the bulk of circulating silver.
The .835 fineness matches the long-standing Venezuelan silver standard carried through from earlier decades, kept deliberately below sterling to reduce bullion costs without triggering public resistance to debasement.
