Obverse description The obverse is printed in black on an orange-tinted underprint. At center, a classical allegorical female figure seated amongst sheaves of grain occupies the central vignette, rendered in fine intaglio engraving. To the lower left, the Colombian national coat of arms appears within an oval frame, while to the right a portrait vignette of a uniformed military figure — believed to be Simón Bolívar — is set within a circular frame. The denomination "CINCUENTA CENTAVOS" is inscribed in bold letterpress across the lower center, with the bank title "EL BANCO DE RIO HACHA" arching across the upper portion and the date "1° de Enero de 1883" at upper right.
