The central vignette carries a guilloche rosette with the large numeral denomination "DIEZ PESOS" in letterpress, while a portrait of President Manuel Bulnes in military uniform occupies an oval vignette at right. Two facsimile signatures appear in the lower margin, identified as Presidente and Gerente General.

Reverse description Brown. The bank seal appears at right. A red typographic overprint applied to the original 10 Pesos reverse carries the new denomination in the reformed currency, rendering the underlying Peso inscriptions secondary to the overprinted Escudo value.
