Reverse description The reverse presents a bare, unadorned left-facing portrait bust of Simón Bolívar, the Liberator, rendered in high relief with finely engraved wavy hair swept back from the forehead. The bust is truncated at the neck and placed centrally in an otherwise plain field. The legend BOLIVAR is inscribed along the left periphery and LIBERTADOR along the right periphery, both reading upward from the base. The engraver's signature BARRE appears in small capitals beneath the bust truncation along the lower rim.
