| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a finely detailed scene commemorating Christopher Columbus's arrival on the coast of Nicaragua in 1502. At center, a large square-rigged galleon with full sails and a flag at the masthead rides at anchor on calm waters, while a small rowing boat with figures approaches the tropical shore in the foreground. To the left, two stylized palm trees frame the coastal scene. The denomination 10.000 CORDOBAS is inscribed along the lower field. The surrounding legend reads CRISTOBAL COLON in the upper arc and DESCUBRIO NICARAGUA 1502 in the lower arc, separated by ornamental dots, all rendered in raised relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued in 1989 by the Sandinista government's central bank, this coin commemorates the 500th anniversary run-up to Columbus's contact with the Nicaraguan coast — the same political moment that prompted commemorative programs across Latin America, most of them controversial. Nicaragua's version appeared while the country was still under U.S. trade embargo and fighting a grinding contra war, making hard-currency commemorative silver an odd fiscal priority.
