| Reverse description | Central depiction of the 'Tumi de Oro', the iconic Peruvian ceremonial knife characterized by its semi-circular blade, with the handle formed in the likeness of the mythological figure of Ñaylamp, a deity associated with the Lambayeque (Sicán) culture dating to the 8th–13th centuries AD. The figure is shown in frontal view with elaborate headdress and adornments, rendered in fine detail evoking pre-Columbian goldwork. The denomination '1 NUEVO SOL' appears in the upper field, with the inscription 'TUMI DE ORO S. VIII — XIII d.C.' occupying the lower portion of the coin. |
