| Obverse description | Central motif depicts Lautaro, the celebrated Mapuche (Araucanian) chieftain, shown as a dynamic equestrian figure mounted on a rearing horse facing left, rendered in bold relief against an unadorned field. The composition conveys martial energy and movement, with the rider's long hair flowing behind him. The engraver's signature F.ORE.P. appears in small letters at the lower right of the design. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE CHILE arcs around the upper periphery, while the name LAUTARO is inscribed along the lower field beneath the horse. |
