| Reverse description | A complex allegorical composition at center depicts a crenellated tower or fortress to the left, a sailing ship with a cross atop its mast in the upper center, an erupting volcano to the upper right, and a cornucopia issuing fruit and foliage at the base. These four emblems, representing the states of the Peru-Bolivian Confederation, are enclosed within a wreath of laurel and olive branches tied at the base. The circular legend FIRME POR LA UNION arcs along the upper periphery, while fineness indicators 10 D. 20 G., the word CONFEDERACION, and the assayer initials B.A. appear along the lower periphery within a beaded border. |
