| Reverse description | Central oval cartouche enclosing a depiction of three volcanoes rising from water, with a quetzal bird in flight above, representing the arms of Guatemala. The cartouche is flanked by two crossed laurel and olive branches below. A circular Latin legend surrounding the central device reads PROCLAMADO EN QUESALT · A · DE · 1822 ·, commemorating the proclamation of Agustín I as Emperor at Quetzaltenango in 1822. The overall design is characteristic of Central American proclamation medal coinage of the early independence period. |
