| Obverse description | Central shield depicting the Honduran coat of arms — a triangular mountain scene within an oval cartouche — surrounded by the circular legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS. The shield is flanked by a wreath of oak and pine branches tied at the base with a ribbon, with crossed cannons and rifles below. The fineness marking 0.835 appears to the lower left of the wreath, the date to the lower right, and the denomination 25 CENTs is inscribed along the lower exergue. The overall design is rendered in a classical engraving style with fine relief detail. |

| Reverse description | A full-length standing figure of Liberty faces the viewer, clad in classical robes. In her raised right hand she holds a staff surmounted by a Phrygian cap from which a banner bearing five stars and the word UNION flows. Her left arm rests upon a column and an open book inscribed CONSTITUCION. Tridents flank the composition on either side, each bearing the mint initials P and A at the base. The arc legend at top reads 15 DE SETIEMBRE DE 1821 and at bottom CONSTITUCION PAZ, PROGRESO Y LIBERTAD, with CENTRO AMERICA appearing in the lower field. |
