| Obverse description | The Nicaraguan national arms depicted as a triangle enclosing five volcanoes rising above the sea, surmounted by a radiant sun and a Phrygian cap, all within a polished field. The circular legend REPÚBLICA DE NICARAGUA arcs along the upper periphery, while AMÉRICA CENTRAL curves along the lower periphery, both separated by raised dots forming an inner border. The date 2018 appears in the exergue below the arms. |

| Additional information |
Part of Nicaragua's "Riqueza del Mundo" wildlife series, this issue belongs to a broader Central American trend of high-relief silver bullion programs aimed squarely at the collector market rather than any domestic monetary function. Nicaragua's córdoba, introduced in 1912 to replace the peso, has long operated under chronic devaluation pressure — the current córdoba oro is itself the fourth iteration of the currency since 1988. KM#120 documents limited independent circulation data for this type, and surviving examples almost universally appear in original mint packaging.
