| Reverse description | Two portraits of Guatemalan artist Carlos Merida are depicted in the central field: a large facing bust in the foreground and a right-profile bust overlapping it to the right, rendered in a stylized relief evoking his modernist artistic heritage. The denomination 1 QUETZAL is displayed prominently in the lower portion of the field in bold decorative lettering. The circular legend 1891 CARLOS MERIDA CIEN AÑOS DE SU NACIMIENTO 1991 runs along the upper periphery, commemorating the centennial of his birth, and the mint mark NG appears at the bottom below the denomination. |
