This striking 5 Centavos commemorative from El Salvador was issued in 1929 to celebrate the inauguration of the international railway connecting El Salvador and Guatemala—a landmark moment in Central American infrastructure and cooperation.
The design features finely engraved portraits of Pres. Pío Romero Bosque (El Salvador) on the left and Gen. Lázaro Chacón (Guatemala) on the right, symbolizing bilateral partnership. Surrounding them is an ornate Mesoamerican-inspired frame, with the central inscription “U.P.U.” and the year 1929 rendered in a stylized glyph-like panel.
