| Reverse description | The reverse centres on a large intaglio portrait of Jorge Eliécer Gaitán with his right hand raised in a characteristic oratorical gesture, set against a guilloche underprint. Two quotations attributed to Gaitán appear in the design: 'Yo no soy un hombre, soy un pueblo' and 'El pueblo es superior a sus dirigentes'. The denomination '1000' and the country name 'COLOMBIA' frame the composition. |
