There are fifty-three pearls round the central circle ; they are large and round, and almost
all the same size. The pearl just below the middle of the left side of the circle has a dark vertical stroke through it, which is the simplest test of the genuine. The "f" and "N" of "federacion" are about the same distance from their respective ends of the containing label.
The inscription in the scroll is "VENEZOLANA". The central star almost touches the frame above it. The first star on the left side is under the space between the letters "Fe" of "federacion" ; and the third star from the left is under the space between the letters "de" of that word,
but rather nearer to the "e". The right-hand star is a great deal nearer to the frame than the left-hand one is. The "s" of DOS is like a "z" turned the wrong way, and the "s" of "reales" is much the same shape. The thing which the bird holds in the claw above the "ven" of VENEZOLANA has two white lines sticking out from it, which run to the edge of the white circle, inside the pearls. There is a stop after REALES. The letters of the bottom inscription are tall, and extend almost from top to bottom of the containing-label.
