| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device displays the Honduran national coat of arms, featuring a circular shield enclosing a volcanic landscape above the sea with a radiating triangle, flanked by a quiver of arrows and cornucopiae, all surmounted by an oval cartouche bearing UNION on a scroll with five stars above representing the Central American republics. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS surrounds the central device, with the motto PAZ PROGRESO LIBERTAD inscribed on a scroll at the base of the arms. The date appears to the lower left, the fineness 0.900 to the lower right, and the denomination CINCO PESOS is boldly inscribed along the lower rim, all within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Honduras issued this gold series during a period when Central American nations were actively attempting monetary harmonization — the region's short-lived effort to align currencies with one another and with international gold standards following the Latin Monetary Union's influence. The Honduran monetary law of 1870 had established the peso on a gold basis, but chronic political instability and foreign debt crises made sustaining a gold coinage genuinely difficult across these three decades.
Actual mintage figures for individual years remain poorly documented, and the series was struck at outside facilities rather than any domestic mint. Surviving examples in circulated grades suggest these coins did move through commerce, unlike many small-nation gold issues that were hoarded immediately.
