| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black on white paper with a complex engraved layout. The bank title 'EL BANCO NACIONAL DE LA REPÚBLICA DE COLOMBIA' arches across the top, beneath which a central panel carries the promise text 'Pagará al portador á la vista' above the denomination 'UN PESO' in large bold lettering. Oval portrait vignettes of allegorical or historical figures occupy the upper left and upper right corners, flanked by ornate guilloche scrollwork and lathe-work borders; the date 'Bogotá, Septiembre 1º de 1886' and two manuscript signatures appear in the lower central area, with the serial number printed in red at lower left. |
