Beschrijving voorzijde Central design features the Fortaleza del Cerro, a historic hilltop fortress situated atop a rocky promontory, rendered in fine relief with architectural detail including its tower and battlements. Below the fortress, three undulating horizontal lines represent the waters of the Río de la Plata estuary. The legend URUGUAY arcs along the upper periphery in large raised Latin letters, while the date 1976 appears in the lower field. A small engraver's initial is visible to the right of the central design in the field.

Beschrijving keerzijde The denomination numeral 20 dominates the central field in large, bold raised figures with a double-outline relief style. The inscription CENTESIMOS curves along the lower periphery in raised Latin letters. Two symmetrical olive or laurel sprigs flank the numeral on either side, their stems rising from the lower field and their leaves spreading upward toward the coin's rim, lending a classical decorative character to the design.

Aanvullende informatie

Uruguay's 1976 military government was in its third year of consolidating power when this pattern was struck — a period of intense institutional reshuffling that saw the Banco Central issuing numerous trial pieces as it rationalized the national coinage. KM#PnD108 is one of several aluminium patterns from this cycle that never advanced to circulation, likely displaced by the copper-clad steel composition ultimately adopted for the denomination.
