| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of George Washington, first President of the United States (1789–1797), occupies the central field. The legend "ISLA DE PUERTO RICO" arcs along the upper periphery, while the face value "UNA PESETA" and the date "2009" appear along the lower periphery. The motto "EN DIOS CREEMOS" flanks the portrait, accompanied by the word "LIBERTAD" and the mint mark "PRM". The design draws stylistic inspiration from the classic Washington quarter obverse. |

| Additional information |
Puerto Rico has no independent monetary authority and issues no official coinage — this piece originates from a private or fantasy mint producing collector tokens under a regional identity. The "Aguada" designation references one of Puerto Rico's oldest municipalities, site of a contested landing claimed by both Columbus in 1493 and subsequent Spanish expeditions, though the historical record remains genuinely unresolved among scholars.
