| Obverse description | Central device depicts a volcano rendered as a triangle, surmounted by a radiant eight-pointed star, all enclosed within a wreath of laurel branches. The surrounding legend reads POR LA LIVERTAD DEL SALVADOR, distributed around the full circumference of the coin. The design is characteristic of the early Central American republican coinage tradition, with boldly struck lettering in the field. |
