| Reverse description | Central vignette presents an aerial intaglio panorama of Caño Cristales in the Serranía de la Macarena, rendered in vivid multicolour tones of pink, green, teal, and ochre to evoke the river's renowned algae-covered riverbed. To the right, a decorative floral guilloche panel surrounds multiple species of birds in flight, with the Cardinal (El Cardenal) identified by inscription. A quoted passage by Débora Arango Pérez appears in the upper right, accompanied by a circular Banco de la República seal; the denomination is repeated in large letterpress at lower right. |
