| Obverse description | Intaglio portrait of Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez occupies the right portion of the note, with his name and the inscription 'PREMIO NOBEL DE LITERATURA (1982)' printed below. To the left, a central vignette illustrates a figure releasing butterflies into the air, an allusion to the author's literary world, accompanied by a colour-shifting optically variable ink (OVI) hummingbird motif labelled 'COLIBRÍ PIQUICORTO' with its scientific name. The denomination '50 MIL PESOS' appears in the upper left within a multicolour guilloche underprint, and two signature lines for the Gerente General and Gerente Ejecutivo are present in the lower left. |
