| Reverse description | The reverse presents a left-facing armored bust of Vasco Nunez de Balboa, the Spanish conquistador and explorer, rendered in high relief. He is depicted wearing a morion helmet and articulated plate armor with a ruffled gorget at the collar. The portrait is boldly modeled in a classical style, positioned centrally within the field. Flanking the bust are decorative sprigs — a wheat branch to the left and a floral sprig to the right. The curved legend . MEDIO . BALBOA . arcs across the upper field, each word separated by lozenge-shaped stops. |
