| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of General José Gervasio Artigas occupies the central field, with the engraver's signature L. BAZOR incuse in the left field behind the neck truncation. A circular legend reading REPUBLICA ORIENTAL DEL URUGUAY arcs across the upper and lateral periphery, while the figure name ARTIGAS, flanked by five-pointed stars, appears along the lower rim. The ESSAI designation is inscribed between the portrait and the lower legend, confirming the piece's pattern status. The portrait is rendered in a classical, high-relief medallic style consistent with French engraving tradition of the period. |
