Obverse description A condor with wings spread wide stands in left profile atop a rocky outcrop at center, rendered in high relief with fine feather detailing. The bird's head is turned to face left, and the wings are raised in a dramatic open posture. The fineness notation '0.9' appears in the lower left field, with the Santiago mint mark 'So' to the lower right. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DE CHILE' arcs along the upper periphery in bold Latin capitals, framed by a toothed border.

The entire central legend is enclosed within a wreath of laurel and native Chilean foliage, tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The wreath branches extend symmetrically to either side, and a toothed border runs along the full circumference of the coin.
