| Reverse description | Printed entirely in orange-brown, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche framework with two oval cartouches bearing the denomination 'UN PESO' flanking a central vignette of the Nicaraguan coat of arms — a triangle enclosing five volcanic peaks rising from the sea beneath a rainbow. The legend 'TESORO NACIONAL' arcs above the central design, with 'REPÚBLICA DE NICARAGUA' in bold lettering along the lower border and the printer's imprint below. |
