| Obverse description | Central device features the Honduran coat of arms — a triangular landscape scene enclosed within an oval cartouche, flanked by a quiver of arrows and a cornucopia on either side, and surmounted by a mural crown. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS arcs around the upper periphery, with the date 1871 positioned in the lower field beneath the shield. The design is rendered in moderate relief with a reeded border. |

| Reverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Liberty occupies the central field, her hair loosely arranged and adorned with a laurel sprig. Small floral ornaments appear on either side of the bust. The legend 15 DE SETIEMBRE DE 1821, commemorating Central American independence, arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while CENTRO AMERICA is inscribed in the lower exergual area. The overall design is characteristic of the Central American republican coinage tradition of the 19th century. |
