| Obverse description | The Ecuadorian national coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring an oval shield displaying a river scene with Mount Chimborazo, a steamship, and a radiant sun above; the shield is flanked by four national flags and surmounted by a condor with outstretched wings. The denomination numeral '8' appears to the left of the shield and the assayer initial 'E' to the right, with mint mark 'G.J.' incorporated into the legend. The circular legend reads REPUBLICA DEL ECUADOR around the upper periphery, with QUITO along the lower border, all rendered in bold Roman capitals within a reeded border. |
