| Reverse description | The national coat of arms of El Salvador occupies the central field, depicting a triangular shield bearing a volcanic landscape with five peaks and a rising sun, surmounted by a Phrygian cap on a staff and flanked by a laurel branch on the left and a palm branch on the right. The shield is topped with an ornamental scroll and a five-pointed star. The circular legend REPUBLICA DEL SALVADOR EN LA AMERICA CENTRAL arcs around the upper periphery, while the denomination UN PESO appears at the base flanked by decorative stars. A toothed border encircles the entire design. |
