Beschrijving keerzijde The central field displays the denomination 150 COLONES in large bold numerals and lettering, framed by an open laurel wreath whose two branches rise from the base and curve symmetrically to either side. The circular legend V CENTENARIO DEL ENCUENTRO DE DOS CULTURAS arcs continuously around the upper and lateral periphery in raised Latin characters. The commemorative date range 1492 - 1992, separated by raised bullet points, appears along the lower arc. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, with the mirror-like proof fields providing strong contrast against the frosted relief elements.

Aanvullende informatie

El Salvador issued this piece to mark the Quinto Centenario — the 500th anniversary of Columbus's 1492 landfall — a commemoration that generated fierce political controversy across Latin America, where many governments and indigenous groups rejected the framing of "discovery" altogether. El Salvador pressed ahead with the official terminology despite the debate. The Banco Central de Reserva had issued commemorative silver in limited quantities before, but the 1992 quincentenary series represented one of the more substantial efforts in the country's modern numismatic program.
