Obverse description Draped bust of José Gervasio Artigas in three-quarter profile facing left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed portraiture. The legend REPUBLICA ORIENTAL DEL URUGUAY arcs along the upper periphery, while the name ARTIGAS appears in the lower field beneath the effigy. The portrait is set against a smooth, unadorned field, with the bust truncation clearly defined at the base.

Reverse description The large bold numeral '100' dominates the central field in a clean modernist typographic style. Below, the denomination PESOS and the date 1973 are inscribed in two horizontal lines. A decorative olive branch bearing berries extends from the lower right, sweeping upward along the right side of the field to frame the central device, imparting an elegant classical accent to the otherwise austere composition.
