| Obverse description | Central field displays the quartered arms of Ecuador within a shield: upper quarters depicting mountains and a river scene, lower quarters showing a ship under sail and a volcanic peak. A condor with spread wings surmounts the shield. The shield is flanked by laurel and olive branches tied at the base, with denomination numeral '4' to the left and 'R' to the right of the branches. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DEL ECUADOR' arcs around the upper periphery, with 'QUITO . M . V' appearing at the lower border, indicating the Quito mint and assayer initials. |
