The bank title BANCO CENTRAL DE GUATEMALA arches across the top in bold letterpress, beneath which the promise clause PAGARÁ AL PORTADOR A LA VISTA EN EFECTIVO Y A LA PAR appears in smaller type, with the denomination legend CINCUENTA CENTAVOS DE QUETZAL set in a solid panel at the lower centre. Three manuscript signatures appear at the bottom, attributed to the Inspección Bancaria, Dirección, and Gerencia, with the printer's imprint WATERLOW & SONS LIMITED, LONDRES at the foot. |
