| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the national arms of Honduras at center, featuring a equilateral triangle enclosing a radiant eye above a landscape with a volcanic mountain, flanked by sailing vessels and a fortress, all supported by a draped cornucopia arrangement tied at the base with a ribbon and quetzal birds. The arms are rendered in fine detail consistent with a pattern strike. The circular legend reads REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS in the upper arc and AMERICA CENTRAL in the lower arc, both in raised Latin lettering. A beaded border runs along the coin's periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Honduras experimented with copper-nickel coinage in the late 1860s under pressure to modernize its fractional currency, which had long relied on worn Spanish colonial silver. The 1869 pattern series, of which this piece is part, was never adopted for circulation — the republic lacked both the minting infrastructure and the political stability to commit to a new alloy at the time.
KM#Pn6 is among the scarcer entries in the Honduran pattern sequence, with surviving examples traceable almost entirely to collector acquisition rather than institutional holdings.
