| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black on white paper, with the Cuban coat of arms — a shield bearing a key, striped fields, and a royal palm — displayed in a vignette at the upper left. The heading reads 'LA REPUBLICA DE CUBA' in bold letterpress across the top centre, followed by the bearer clause 'Pagará al portador' in script and the denomination 'UN PESO' in a boldly framed panel. A circular guilloche rosette at the upper right contains the numeral '1', with the series designation at the lower left and the number printed in red at the upper right. The body of the note carries a Spanish-language legal text and the year '1869' within a small red overprint seal at the lower right. |
