| Reverse description | The municipal coat of arms of Camuy dominates the central field, depicting a stylized sun face above horizontal wavy lines representing a river, all surmounted by a mural crown with battlements. The shield is flanked on either side by decorative laurel and oak branches. The municipality name 'Camuy' arcs prominently at the top, flanked by the foundation year '1807' on the left and the order number '#39' on the right. The legend 'La Ciudad Romántica' curves along the lower periphery, identifying Camuy by its traditional epithet. |

| Additional information |
Puerto Rico has no independent monetary authority and has used the U.S. dollar since 1899, which makes any coin issued under a "Puerto Rico" issuer designation a novelty or fantasy piece rather than a genuine circulating issue. The Camuy designation likely references the Camuy Caves, a significant karst cave system on the island's north coast. No verifiable official coinage program for Puerto Rico as a distinct issuing authority exists under this date or specification.
