| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Uruguay occupies the central field, featuring an oval quartered shield displaying a hilltop fortress, scales of justice, a horse, and an ox, surmounted by a radiant rising sun emitting straight rays. The shield is flanked by laurel and olive branches tied at the base, with crossed flags and a cannon to either side. The circular legend REPUBLICA ORIENTAL DEL URUGUAY runs along the periphery in Latin characters, and a small five-pointed star appears in the lower field below the arms. The design is executed in fine relief with a milled border of beads encircling the entire composition. |
