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.

Two circular guilloche medallions bearing the denomination "DIEZ PESOS" flank the central vignette at left and right, with the issuer's name arching above and below in letterpress.
