Around the edge, the text reads from left to right: the country name in Spanish 'REPUBLICA BOLIVIANA' (Bolivian Republic), below the Latin letters 'PTS', the inscription '2S' (2 scudo), the year of issue '1841', and the engraver's mark 'LR', with dots between the inscriptions. The rim is decorated with decorative denticles.
