| Obverse description | The coat of arms of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic occupies the central field, featuring two crossed rifles flanked by symmetrical olive branches, surmounted by a crescent and five-pointed star. A blank ribbon scroll appears below the shield, with the date 2013 in the lower field beneath the arms. The circular legend REPUBLICA ARABE SAHARAUI DEMOCRATICA runs along the lower periphery in upright Latin lettering. |

| Additional information |
Western Sahara has no functioning government with minting authority — the territory remains disputed between Morocco and the Polisario Front, with no internationally recognized state in control. Coins issued under the "Western Sahara" name are produced by private minting companies, typically marketed to collectors rather than circulated. The peseta denomination is particularly incongruous, as it was discontinued in Spain itself in 2002.
