Obverse lettering REPUBLICA DE GUATEMALA LIBERTAD 15 DE SETIEMBRE DE 1821 1 QUETZAL
(Translation: Republic of Guatemala Liberty 15th of September 1821)
Reverse description The reverse presents a vivid full-color enamel panoramic scene of Lake Atitlán, Guatemala's celebrated volcanic crater lake, occupying a central circular cartouche. The composition depicts the tranquil blue waters of the lake in the foreground, with a bare-branched tree adorned with small red berries extending from the left, and the majestic volcanic peaks of the Sierra Madre range rising on the horizon beneath a pale sky. The inscription LAGO DE ATITLÁN is incused within the scene at upper center. Surrounding the colored panel, the outer legend reads XI SERIE IBEROAMERICANA arcing across the top and MARAVILLAS NATURALES flanking the date 2017 at the base, all on a polished dark field.
