| Obverse description | A full-length figure of a Hereford bull standing in profile to the left occupies the central field of this dodecagonal aluminium coin. The legend URUGUAY arcs across the upper periphery in bold raised lettering, while the date of issue appears in the lower field beneath the animal. The mint mark of the Casa de Moneda de Chile (So) is visible to the right of the bull's hindquarters. The overall design is rendered in a clean, modern engraving style with fine surface detail on the animal's musculature. |
