| Reverse description | The municipal coat of arms of Cabo Rojo is centrally displayed, featuring a shield divided into quarters bearing anchors and a central triangular charge with a torch and sword, surmounted by a mural crown. Flanking the shield are decorative laurel or palm branches. A scroll banner below the shield bears the inscription "CABO ROJO". The municipality name "Cabo Rojo" arches across the top of the field, with the foundation year "1771" to the left and the series number "# 20" to the right. The curved legend at the base reads "La Ciudad de Cofresí", referencing the municipality's historical epithet. |

| Additional information |
Cabo Rojo is one of a series of municipio-themed issues released by the Puerto Rico Numismatic Association beginning in the mid-2000s, produced as collector pieces with no circulation mandate. The series drew on earlier Spanish colonial coinage traditions, including the short-lived Puerto Rican peso issues of 1895–1896, struck in Madrid just years before the island transferred from Spanish to American sovereignty following the Treaty of Paris.
