| Obverse description | The obverse bears the Sello Nacional (National Seal) of Paraguay at center, depicting the five-pointed star within a wreath. The encircling legend reads REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY, with the partial date 18 inscribed in the field. The design follows the classical republican heraldic style consistent with late 19th-century Paraguayan coinage. The inscription is rendered in Latin script along the periphery. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features the Sello de Hacienda (Treasury Seal) of Paraguay, the second of the country's two official coat of arms devices used on coinage of this period. Below the central heraldic device, the national motto PAZ Y JUSTICIA (Peace and Justice) appears along with the denomination UN PESO and the silver fineness designation 9 Dos FINO, indicating nine-tenths fine silver. The composition of text and armorial imagery follows formal engraving conventions typical of pattern coinage produced for official review. |
