| Obverse description | The Ecuadorian national arms occupy the central field, depicting an oval shield charged with Mount Chimborazo and a steamship on the river below, surmounted by a condor with spread wings atop the shield. The arms are flanked on either side by four national flags draped outward, with a laurel branch to the left and a palm branch to the right. The circular legend REPUBLICA DEL ECUADOR runs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, and the date appears in the exergue below the shield. |

| Reverse description | The denomination legend is inscribed in two lines across the centre of the field in bold raised Latin lettering, reading CINCO above CENTAVOS. The central inscription is framed by a wreath of two olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow, their sprays curving upward symmetrically to either side. A fine toothed border runs along the entire circumference of the coin. |
