| Obverse description | The obverse bears the arms of the Republic of Honduras at center: the national coat of arms featuring a triangle enclosing a mountainous landscape within a circular legend reading REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS and the date 1821, flanked by a cornucopia and quiver of arrows on each side, surmounted by a mural crown, and supported by a decorative base with a laurel and oak wreath below. The peripheral legend reads JOSE · MARIA · MEDINA · CAPITAN · GENERAL · PRESIDENTE · identifying the incumbent head of state, distributed around the full circumference of the coin. The engraver's name TASSET appears in small capitals near the lower rim. The coin exhibits fine milled denticles along the inner border and displays rich polychrome toning consistent with a copper pattern striking. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination 1 REAL in two lines at the center of the field, enclosed within a wreath composed of oak branches on the left and olive branches on the right, tied at the base. Two small five-pointed stars flank the lower portion of the wreath. The date 1870 appears in the exergue below the wreath. The peripheral legend HONDURAS · AMERICA · CENTRAL, punctuated by a star, runs along the upper arc of the coin, with fine milled denticles framing the entire design.
