| Reverse description | The central design depicts a Moche warrior-figure astride a traditional caballito de totora, a reed fishing vessel characteristic of the northern Peruvian coast, rendered in high relief inspired by pre-Columbian Moche ceramic art. The figure is shown in dynamic posture, wearing an elaborate headdress and ceremonial attire, with stylized marine motifs including fish and scrollwork occupying the surrounding field. A decorative border of Moche-style curvilinear ornamental elements frames the composition. The legend PERÚ appears to the left, with CERÁMICA MOCHE arched above and CABALLITO DE TOTORA inscribed below the central scene. |
