| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing a stepped pyramid surmounted by a radiant triangle, enclosed within a circular legend. The shield is flanked on either side by an elaborate wreath of laurel and oak branches tied at the base, extending around the full circumference of the coin. The circular legend reads REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS, running from lower left to lower right around the inner ring. The overall design is executed in a neoclassical style with fine detail in the wreath foliage and pyramid steps. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Honduras adopted a decimal coinage system in 1879, and the silver issues that followed were tied directly to the country's chronic fiscal instability throughout the 1880s and 1890s — a period marked by successive governments struggling to maintain parity with Central American trading partners. The Tegucigalpa mint, reopened specifically to support the new decimal system, produced these pieces intermittently rather than annually, which accounts for the uneven date distribution across the type's sixteen-year run.
Certain dates within this series are genuinely scarce in any grade, the result of suspended mint operations during political upheaval rather than collector attrition.
