| Reverse description | The reverse displays the bold numeral 5 in large raised figures occupying the upper central field, with the word PESOS inscribed in a curved arc beneath in large Latin capitals. A continuous decorative floral or rosette border frames the entire design close to the rim, replacing the conventional beaded or reeded border. The engraver's name HUGUET is faintly visible to the right of the numeral 5. The composition and layout are characteristic of a pattern essay prepared for governmental approval. |
