| Obverse description | Counterstamp applied to the obverse of a Salvadoran 1/2 Real host coin dated 1894, featuring the national arms of El Salvador within a circular punch. The underlying host coin displays the old Salvadoran national coat of arms at center, surrounded by a legend at top and fineness, mint mark, and date inscriptions at bottom. The counterstamp authenticates and revalues the host coin for Guatemalan circulation. The legends record the Salvadoran republic's foundational date and the alloy fineness of the host planchet. |
