| Obverse description | Central field features the Ecuadorian national coat of arms — a condor perched atop an oval shield displaying Mount Chimborazo and a steamship on a river — rendered in high relief within a beaded inner circle. Surrounding the central device, arranged in a ring around the border, are twelve raised depictions of historical Ibero-American coins and national emblems from participating nations of the Ibero-American series, separated by small intervals. The curved legend REPUBLICA DEL ECUADOR arcs across the upper field, while the date 1991 appears in the lower field below the inner circle. The overall composition reflects a commemorative medallic style with a deeply mirrored proof finish. |
