| Obverse description | The obverse displays the Sello Nacional, the national coat of arms of Paraguay, centrally positioned within the field. The arms are encircled by the legend REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY along the periphery, with the date of issue partially rendered in the exergue or lower field, reading 18 followed by the remaining digits. The design reflects the formal engraving conventions typical of South American pattern coinage of the late nineteenth century. |
