| Obverse description | Central design features the Honduran coat of arms, depicting a stepped pyramid surmounted by a radiant triangle, flanked by two towers, all set within a beaded inner circle. The national legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS encircles the design along the upper periphery, with a small decorative ornament positioned at the base. The composition is rendered in a neoclassical engraving style typical of Latin American coinage of the late 19th century. |
