Above the vessel, a cross is visible on a post or mooring structure, evoking the infrastructure of the San Bernardo de Maipo canal project. The circular legend 'CANAL DE S. BERNARDO DE MAYPO' surrounds the central design, with decorative stops separating the legend. The overall composition is simple and functional, consistent with the utilitarian nature of this emergency token coinage issued for canal workers. |
