Interesting fact
This coin was designed by the Uruguayan artist and sculptor, José Belloni, and it features a unique pattern on its reverse side. The pattern depicts a stylized representation of the Uruguayan countryside, with rolling hills, trees, and a sun setting in the background. The pattern was created using a technique called "punching," which involves stamping a design onto the metal using a tool or die. This technique gives the coin a distinctive texture and visual interest, making it stand out from other coins.
