| Beschrijving keerzijde | The large bold numeral '50' occupies the left and central field, with the denomination legend PESOS inscribed in capital letters beneath it. To the right, two finely detailed wheat ears rise diagonally from the lower field, their heads curving gracefully toward the upper rim, symbolizing agricultural wealth. The composition is clean and uncluttered, with the wheat stalks providing an elegant naturalistic counterpoint to the geometric numeral in a design typical of mid-twentieth-century Latin American coinage. |

Uruguay's 1968 monetary reform introduced a new peso scale — the peso uruguayo replacing the old peso at 1,000 to one — and several denominations were struck as patterns before the final circulating designs were confirmed. This 50 pesos gold pattern was part of that trial process, produced at a moment when the country was navigating severe inflation and IMF-pressured austerity measures that had fueled years of social unrest leading up to the Tupamaros insurgency.
Pattern gold coinage from this reform series rarely surfaces; most were retained institutionally or melted. KM#PnA85 distinguishes it from the confirmed pattern listings, suggesting a design variant rejected before the approval stage.
