| Obverse lettering | MONEDA • PROVISIONAL • F • Ps • 1828 (Translation: Provisional coin F Ps) |
| Reverse description | Central device features a Phrygian or liberty cap (gorro frigio) set atop a staff or pole, rising above a wavy sea rendered in low relief, symbolising liberty and the new republic. The numeral 2 appears to the left of the staff in the field, denoting the denomination. The circular legend POR LA LIVERTAD • SALV • runs along the upper periphery in Latin capital letters, while the lower portion of the legend reads 10 Ds. 20 Gs. 2. R., indicating the fineness and denomination specifications. The overall design is characteristic of the rudimentary engraving style associated with early Central American provisional coinage. |
