| 背面描述 | Draped bust of Liberty facing left, rendered in classical style, occupying the central field. A circular legend surrounds the effigy, with the denomination numeral and mint name inscribed in the lower portion of the field. The assayer initial appears alongside the mint designation, consistent with Spanish colonial-derived coinage conventions retained in early Ecuadorian republican issues. |

The Casa de Moneda de Quito operated under considerable political turbulence during this period — Ecuador had only separated from Gran Colombia in 1830, and the young republic's monetary infrastructure was effectively inherited wholesale from the colonial apparatus. The Quito mint itself dated to 1743 and had spent most of its existence producing coinage for the Spanish crown.
KM#15 is notorious among specialists for inconsistent planchet preparation, a chronic problem at Quito throughout the 1830s tied to irregular gold supply from domestic sources rather than import.
