| Obverse description | Two prominent Candombe characters depicted in vibrant color: the 'Mama Vieja' (elder woman) and the 'Gramillero' (herbalist figure), both rendered in traditional carnival costume. The curved legend 'REPUBLICA ORIENTAL DEL URUGUAY' arcs across the upper field, while the face value '$ 1000' appears in the lower field. The figures are presented with polychrome coloring applied to the coin's surface, highlighting the cultural vibrancy of the Candombe tradition. |
