On the reverse of this highly popular silver bullion coin is the classic "Cap and Ray" design. The Libertad, or liberty, Cap floats above, while rays of light shoot out from behind it in all directions. An elegant design adorns the entire rim with the rays of light shining above, the denomination "UN PESO" is struck in large letters , with the date under it. It's not difficult to see why the Cap and Ray Un Peso silver coin is adorned by coin collectors across the globe.
