| Descripción del anverso |
The Uruguayan national coat of arms, displayed within an oval cartouche quartered with symbols including scales of justice, a fortified hill, an ox, and a horse, is centrally positioned in the field, encircled by an elaborate laurel and olive wreath tied at the base. A radiant rising sun appears above the shield, its rays extending upward. The peripheral legend REPUBLICA ORIENTAL DEL URUGUAY runs along the upper rim, while the date 1917 appears in the exergue flanked by small stars. The coin's border is decorated with a fine beaded rim. |

| Descripción del reverso |
A bare-headed, draped bust of José Gervasio Artigas, founding hero of Uruguay, faces left in high relief, rendered in a classical portraiture style. The peripheral legend CON LIBERTAD NI OFENDO NI TEMO arcs along the upper rim, while the inscription ARTIGAS * UN PESO * runs along the lower rim beneath the portrait. The field is plain, and the coin is finished with a beaded border. The overall design conveys a dignified and patriotic character consistent with the coinage of the early Uruguayan republic. |
