| Obverse description | The obverse is engraved in a dark grey-black intaglio style on a light ground. A central vignette presents a bust portrait of a military figure in uniform, set within an ornate oval frame surrounded by intricate guilloche work. To the left, the national coat of arms of Colombia appears alongside the legend 'Amortizable conforme a las leyes'; to the right, a decorative cartouche bears the denomination 'UN PESO'. The heading 'República de Colombia' arches across the upper field in large ornate lettering, with the date 'Bogotá, Abril de 1904' inscribed below the central vignette. |
