Obverse description The Honduran national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a triangular mountain landscape within an oval cartouche encircled by the legend REPUBLICA DE HONDURAS. The arms are elaborately supported by cannons, rifles, and flags arranged symmetrically on either side, surmounted by a radiating quetzal and a mural crown at the apex. A decorative wreath of oak and laurel frames the lower portion of the shield, tied with a ribbon bow at the base from which a small decorative cross pendant is suspended. The date 1871 appears in the exergue below the central cartouche. The entire design is struck in high relief with fine detail characteristic of a pattern or proof striking.
