Because this is a very rare coin, several photos are included. Unfortunately, the strike on this coin is so weak that the key word "Suriana" is invisible. Nevertheless, other die markers establish it as the Suriana issue. Visible die markers include (on the reverse): The longest rays end in little "globes," and the first "O" in "ORO" is close to the "B" of "LIBERTAD." (Special thanks to Angel Smith for the die marker information.)
