| Obverse description | Three-quarter left-facing portrait bust of José Artigas set within a square frame, with the denomination 'N$ 5' inscribed to the left of the portrait. The legend around the design references the sesquicentennial commemoration of 1825, with the mint mark 'So' (Santiago) and the inscription 'URUGUAY' completing the surround. The portrait is rendered in high relief in a classically restrained style, conveying the gravitas befitting a national hero. The square frame provides a distinctive geometric element within the round coin field. |
