| Obverse description | Central field features the provincial coat of arms of Córdoba enclosed within an oval cartouche, depicting a gauntleted hand grasping a cross-topped staff or sceptre, flanked by small star-like ornaments, all set against a plain field within the oval. The central device is surrounded by an ornate wreath of stylised oak or laurel branches with prominent lobed leaves. The circumferential legend PROVINCIA DE CORDOVA runs around the outer border, separated from the wreath by a beaded inner circle. |

| Reverse description | Central device consists of a large radiant sun with alternating straight and wavy rays emanating from a circular disc bearing a stylised human face in full relief, a design derived from the Sol de Mayo motif used on Argentine coinage of the period. The sun occupies the majority of the field. The surrounding circular legend CONFEDERADA with the assayer initials J.P.P. appears around the periphery, interrupted by small ornamental stops. The rim is defined by a reeded or beaded border consistent with the provincial minting style. |
