Obverse description The Nicaraguan national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting an equilateral triangle enclosing five volcanic peaks rising from the sea beneath a radiant sun, surmounted by a Phrygian liberty cap. The triangle is flanked on either side by laurel and oak branches extending to the coin's periphery. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE NICARAGUA arcs along the upper portion of the rim, while the independence date 15 DE SETIEMBRE 1821 is inscribed along the lower arc, with a small star on each side separating the legends. The entire design is rendered in fine relief with a beaded border encircling the rim.
