| Additional information |
El Salvador's 1971 coinage program included several pattern submissions that never advanced to circulation, this 25 Colones among them. The gold-plated brass composition identifies it as a presentation or approval piece — struck to demonstrate design and scale to monetary authorities rather than for any intended release. Whether the denomination itself was abandoned or simply the specific design is not documented in standard references.
