| Reverse description | A stylized depiction of a spear and flag, emblematic of the revolutionary struggle for Uruguayan independence, occupies the central field. The design is rendered in a bold, graphic style evoking the heraldic traditions of the Uruguayan patriotic movement. The motto 'LIBERTAD O MUERTE' — meaning 'Freedom or Death' — arcs across the field as the primary legend, reflecting the battle cry of the Orientales under Artigas during the revolutionary period of the early nineteenth century. |
