| Obverse description | Central device depicts an erupting or smoking volcano rising above waves at the base, rendered in a crude but distinctive provincial style. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with a continuous Latin legend along the outer circle reading MONEDA PROVISIONAL F Ps. The date 1828 appears in the lower portion of the design beneath the volcano. The overall composition is characteristic of early Central American provisional coinage, with the volcano serving as a regional symbol of El Salvador. |
