| Obverse description | Central composition featuring the Guatemalan national arms: a scroll inscribed LIBERTAD / 15 / DE SET / DE / 1821 flanked by crossed rifles and laurel branches, surmounted by a quetzal bird perched atop the scroll. A large central hole pierces the lower field. The circular legend GUATEMALA C. A. arcs along the upper periphery, with the date 1921 at the bottom, flanked by small five-pointed stars. The design is rendered in moderate relief consistent with a pattern strike. |
