| Obverse description | The Guatemalan national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a resplendent quetzal bird perched atop a scroll inscribed with the independence date '15 DE SEPTIEMBRE DE 1821' and the word 'LIBERTAD', flanked by crossed rifles and swords and framed by laurel branches. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE GUATEMALA runs along the upper periphery. The silver fineness '0.720' appears at lower left and the date of issue at lower right, both separated by dashes. The design is executed in fine relief with a beaded inner border. |
