- Inscriptions: On the obverse, 'CENTENARY OF THE BREÑA CAMPAIGN' surrounding the bust of Andrés A. Cáceres with the dates 1882–1982; on the reverse, the national shield of Peru surrounded by the legend 'BANCO CENTRAL DE RESERVA DEL PERÚ' and the face value.
- Grade: MS63 (PCGS).

Commemorative coin issued by the Central Reserve Bank of Peru to commemorate the centenary of the Breña Campaign, one of the most prominent episodes of the War of the Pacific, led by General Andrés A. Cáceres. The obverse features a detailed and highly expressive portrait of the Peruvian military man, with excellent definition in the facial features and uniform, while the reverse shows the national shield finely worked, flanked by laurel and palm branches. The specimen retains an attractive original luster, with well-preserved fields and sharp reliefs, showing only slight marks typical of the MS63 grade, which makes it a solid piece and highly representative of contemporary Peruvian commemorative numismatics.
