Reverse
The reverse of the coin depicts the Glyptodon in all its glory, a species that had a very resistant shell, just like today's turtles. On the left of the reverse, the inscriptions: "GLYPTODON" – the technical name of the animal, "2017" – the issue year and "1 OZ AG.999" – the weight of the coin and the fineness of Silver.
