| Obverse lettering | REPUBLICA ORIENTAL DEL URUGUAY *1917* |
| Reverse description | A bare-headed, draped bust of José Gervasio Artigas, founding hero of Uruguay, faces left in high relief, rendered in a classical portraiture style. The peripheral legend CON LIBERTAD NI OFENDO NI TEMO arcs along the upper rim, while the inscription ARTIGAS * UN PESO * runs along the lower rim beneath the portrait. The field is plain, and the coin is finished with a beaded border. The overall design conveys a dignified and patriotic character consistent with the coinage of the early Uruguayan republic. |
