| Obverse description | Central motif features the Guatemalan national coat of arms: a quetzal bird perched atop a scroll inscribed with the independence date, flanked by two crossed rifles and two crossed swords, with laurel branches encircling the shield. A scroll beneath the quetzal bears the legend LIBERTAD 15 DE SETIEMBRE DE 1821, commemorating Guatemalan independence. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE GUATEMALA runs along the periphery between beaded inner borders. The partial date 189 appears in the exergue at the bottom of the obverse, with the final digit absent, consistent with the obverse trial nature of this piece. |
