| Obverse description | Central device depicts a stepped Mesoamerican pyramid rendered in fine detail, enclosed within a raised circular border. The pyramid features a prominent arched gateway at its base flanked by smaller openings, evoking pre-Columbian architectural motifs. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS runs around the periphery in raised Latin characters, separated from the central device by a plain inner ring. A small decorative ornament appears at the bottom of the legend below the inner circle. The coin's rim is edged with fine milling. |
