| Reverse description | The reverse bears a plain field with two lines of incuse script-style lettering arranged horizontally across the center. The upper line reads 25 GRs, indicating the coin's weight of 25 grams, while the lower line reads 620 FINO, denoting the silver fineness of .620, flanked by small decorative dots. The rudimentary engraving style is consistent with an improvised emergency coinage. |
