| Aversbeschreibung | The obverse displays the national arms of Honduras at center, featuring a triangular mountain landscape surmounted by a radiant triangle, flanked on either side by draped flags and a quiver of arrows at the base, all rendered in fine relief. The engraver's signature BARRE appears at the lower portion of the central device. A circular legend reading REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS surrounds the upper arc of the field, while AMERICA CENTRAL occupies the lower arc. The entire design is contained within a toothed inner border and a beaded outer rim. |

Honduras adopted nickel brass for this issue at a moment when most Latin American republics were still committed to silver coinage — a pragmatic concession to chronic silver shortages that plagued Central American mints throughout the 1860s. The Tegucigalpa mint had neither the consistent silver supply nor the institutional stability to maintain a reliable silver fractional coinage, and this alloy offered a workable substitute.
The series ran only two years before being discontinued, leaving KM#33 among the shorter-lived Honduran issues of the nineteenth century.
