| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Christopher Columbus, wearing a period soft cap, with flowing hair and a short beard, rendered in high relief. The circumferential legend REPUBLICA DE COLOMBIA arcs around the upper field, while the date 1892 appears in the lower exergue flanked by two small dots. A fine dentilated border frames the entire design. The portrait is presented in a classical commemorative style befitting the 400th anniversary of Columbus's voyage to the Americas. |
