| Obverse description | Central design features the Guatemalan national coat of arms: a scroll inscribed with the independence date LIBERTAD 15 DE SETIEMBRE DE 1821 displayed on a shield, surmounted by a quetzal bird perched atop the scroll. The shield is flanked by two crossed rifles and two crossed swords, with laurel branches framing the entire composition on either side. The fineness indicator 0.500 appears in the lower left field and the date 1899 in the lower right field. A fine beaded border runs along the coin's rim. |

| Reverse description | A seated allegorical figure of Justice or Liberty occupies the central field, draped in classical robes and facing left, holding a balance scale in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm. To her right stands a stone tablet inscribed with the reform date 30 DEL JUNIO DE 1871, commemorating the Liberal Revolution. The denomination 1 REAL appears in the lower exergue, with the engraver's signature LAGRANGE incised below. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE GUATEMALA arcs around the upper periphery, and a beaded border frames the entire design. |
