Obverse description The obverse displays the national arms of Paraguay at center: a five-pointed star radiating sunbeams, encircled by a wreath comprising a palm branch to the left and an olive branch to the right, tied at the base with a ribbon. The date '19 72' is inscribed in the lower field flanking the wreath, with the denomination '3000 GUARANIES' appearing in bold legend below. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY' arcs around the upper periphery in Latin characters. A fine beaded border frames the entire design, and a small '900' fineness mark is visible at the base of the wreath.

Reverse description The reverse depicts a dynamic figure of a male long jumper in full athletic stride, rendered in high relief with musculature carefully detailed, the athlete leaping powerfully to the right across the field. The inscription 'MUNCHEN' arcs above the figure, with '1972' below it to the left. In the lower field, the five interlocking Olympic rings appear to the left, and the official emblem of the 1972 Munich Olympic Games — a stylized radiant spiral motif — is positioned to the right. A beaded border encircles the entire design.
