| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Honduran national coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring a triangular mountain landscape within an oval cartouche encircled by the legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS and the date 1871 in the exergue. Flanking the central shield are two standing armored figures bearing spears or lances, with crossed cannons and rifles arranged at the base. A mural crown surmounted by feathered plumes rises above the arms. The entire composition is bold and deeply struck, with the gold-plated surface lending the piece a rich, lustrous appearance consistent with a presentation or pattern striking. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Honduras in 1871 was barely two decades past independence from the Central American Federation, with no functioning domestic mint and chronic difficulty attracting foreign minting contracts. This piece is almost certainly a presentation or approval strike produced to demonstrate a proposed coin type to Honduran authorities — a common practice when governments were negotiating with private mints or evaluating new monetary legislation. The gold-plated copper format is characteristic of pattern submissions intended for official review rather than circulation testing.
KM#Pn14a distinguishes this from the silver-composition pattern of the same design, Pn14.
