| Reverse description | A resplendent Quetzal bird is depicted perched upon a column or pillar in the central field, symbolizing Guatemalan independence and sovereignty. The fractional denomination '1/4' appears to the right of the pillar, with 'QUETZAL' inscribed along the lower portion of the field. The circumferential legend 'LEY DE 26 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 1924' arcs around the upper periphery, referencing the monetary law authorizing the coinage. The overall composition is clean and heraldic in character, with clear, well-spaced lettering throughout. |
