| Obverse description | The obverse displays the national coat of arms of Nicaragua at centre, depicting a triangular shield bearing a landscape of five volcanic peaks rising from the sea beneath a radiant sun, surmounted by a Phrygian liberty cap. The shield is flanked on each side by two crossed lances and two crossed flags, their staffs converging at the base and tied with a ribbon. A wreath of laurel and oak branches frames the lower portion of the central device. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE NICARAGUA arcs around the upper periphery, while the date 1878 appears in the lower field beneath the shield. The coin exhibits a fine milled border and displays attractive original copper toning. |
