| Obverse description | An allegorical female figure representing the arts occupies the left vignette, while the national arms of Uruguay appear at right; the face value is centered within the design, with the issuer's full title in letterpress across the top. The composition is framed by fine guilloche ornamental borders typical of late 19th-century intaglio engraving. |
