| Reverse description | The reverse features a large, stylised depiction of the Wiphala, the multicoloured chequered flag emblematic of the indigenous Andean peoples, rendered in fine engraved relief across the central field. The square grid design is composed of forty-nine smaller squares arranged in a 7×7 diagonal pattern, with varying textures and finishes simulating the flag's traditional seven colours. A continuous circular legend surrounds the design along the border, reading: X SERIE IBEROAMERICANA - RAÍCES CULTURALES - WIPHALA - EMBLEMA DE LOS PUEBLOS ORIGINARIOS, identifying this issue as part of the tenth Ibero-American Series devoted to cultural roots. |

| Additional information |
The Ibero-American Series, coordinated among the central banks of Spain, Portugal, and their former colonial territories, has run since 1991, with each participating nation issuing a coin on a shared theme. Argentina's 2015 contribution honored the Wiphala, the checkered banner of Andean indigenous peoples that had been formally recognized as a co-official national symbol of Bolivia in 2009 — a politically charged acknowledgment given the banner's historical suppression under successive military governments.
