| Obverse description | The obverse features the national flag of Uruguay, depicted waving to the right, rendered in relief within the central field. The country name URUGUAY appears as a legend to the left of the flag, while the date of issue is inscribed to the right. The mint mark 'So' for the Casa de Moneda de Chile appears below the flag within the lower field. The overall design is clean and heraldic in character, with legible inscriptions in Latin script. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a stylized depiction of the ceibo flower (Erythrina crista-galli), the national flower of Uruguay, occupying the central and right portions of the field. The denomination 'N$ 5' is inscribed prominently in the left foreground of the design, with the numeral '5' appearing as a larger numeral to the right, creating a bold typographic contrast against the floral motif. The overall composition is naturalistic yet structured, consistent with mid-twentieth-century Latin American coinage design conventions. |
