| Obverse description | Central field features the national coat of arms of Paraguay — a five-pointed star within a wreath, surmounted by an eagle — rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field. Surrounding the central device is a ring of ten smaller circular medallions, each depicting the coat of arms of a different nation, arranged evenly around the periphery. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY' arcs around the upper portion of the coin, with the date '2010' positioned below the central arms near the base. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized map outline of Paraguay occupying the central field, overlaid with a depiction of the historic 1845 1/12 Real coin — Paraguay's first national coinage — shown in detail with its own central design and legend. Surrounding inscriptions reference the coin's historical significance, including the popular name 'Cobre Sa'í' (a hybrid Spanish-Guaraní term meaning 'little copper'). The fractional denomination '1/12' and the date '1845' appear prominently within the composition. The curved legend 'PRIMERA MONEDA PARAGUAYA 1845' arcs across the upper field, while 'ENCUENTRO DE DOS MUNDOS' ('Meeting of Two Worlds') curves along the lower portion. The face value '1 GUARANÍ' is inscribed within the lower section of the design. |
