| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in steel-blue intaglio on white cotton paper, with the bank title 'El Banco de la República' in ornate Gothic lettering across the top, above 'BOGOTA' and 'ESTADOS UNIDOS DE COLOMBIA'. A central vignette presents a pastoral mountain landscape with a steam locomotive crossing a stone bridge, cattle being driven along a road in the foreground, and Andean peaks in the background. The denomination 'UN PESO' appears vertically at left and 'ONE DOLLAR' vertically at right, with bilingual promise-to-pay text flanking the vignette, and a guilloche underprint throughout. |
