| Reverse description | Central field displays two prominent volcanic peaks, widely understood to represent Chimborazo and Pichincha, with a radiant sun bearing a human face rising above them and flanked by the divided denomination numerals '4' to the left and 'R' to the right. Small floral or foliate ornaments appear at the summits of the mountains. The circular legend EL PODER EN LA CONSTITUCION runs along the upper periphery, while the date 1841 and mintmaster initials M.V. are inscribed along the lower arc. The composition emblematically unites Ecuador's Andean geography with constitutional republican ideals. |
