Reverse description A large, detailed portrait bust of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara (1928–1967) dominates the central field, rendered in left-facing profile and based on the iconic 'Guerrillero Heroico' photographic image by Alberto Korda. The legend GUERRILLERO HEROICO curves along the upper periphery, while ERNESTO CHE GUEVARA is inscribed near the lower edge. The commemorative dates 1967–1992, marking the twenty-fifth anniversary of his death, appear below the portrait along with the mint mark. The overall composition is executed in a bold, high-relief engraving style befitting a large-format gold issue.
