| Additional information |
Rosario, in the department of Colonia, was formally founded in 1775 — making 2025 the genuine 250th anniversary. The city holds a modest but real place in Uruguayan history as one of the earlier permanent settlements on the eastern bank of the Río de la Plata, predating Uruguayan independence by half a century.
Banco Central del Uruguay has issued commemorative regional anniversary coins sporadically since the 1970s, typically in limited runs tied to municipal lobbying rather than any systematic program.
