| Reverse description | Central design features a column surmounted by a Liberty cap, with the denomination numeral 4 and the initial R flanking the pillar on either side, all contained within a beaded inner circle. A circular legend surrounds the central device, inscribed POR LA LIBERTAD SALV R. 4., proclaiming the coin's allegiance to Salvadoran liberty. The overall composition reflects the republican iconography common to newly independent Central American states of the 1820s. |
