| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the national coat of arms of Honduras in high relief at center, featuring a triangular device enclosing mountains beneath a radiant sun, surrounded by an oval border bearing the legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS and the date 1871. Flanking the central shield are two standing figures — a female figure to the left and a helmeted figure to the right — each supporting a flagpole with pennants. Above the shield rises a Quetzal bird atop an ornate crowned crest, while below, a decorative ribbon and a Maltese cross pendant complete the armorial composition. The entire device is set within a broad, flat field, encircled by a finely milled border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Honduras issued a series of pattern coinage in 1871 as the nascent republic worked through proposals for a standardized decimal currency system, and very few of these trial pieces were struck in any format. The gold-plated copper specimens like this one were likely produced for official presentation or approval rather than any consideration of actual circulation metal.
KM#Pn15a distinguishes this copper-core variant from the related Pn15, presumably struck in silver or a purer alloy — the lettered suffix indicating a secondary composition trial within the same design submission.
