Obverse description The obverse is printed in black and green on light paper. At left, an oval intaglio portrait vignette of a uniformed military figure, engraved in fine detail and set within an ornate frame with the legend 'UN PESO' beneath. At right, a classical allegorical vignette of putti with grapes and fruit in a baroque composition. The centre carries the issuing authority inscription 'EL BANCO DE LA PROVINCIA DE SANTIAGO DEL ESTERO' above the payable clause 'pagará á la vista y al portador UN PESO', with 'REPUBLICA ARGENTINA' across the top, serial number and series designations in the upper margin, and the Argentine national arms at centre top.

Reverse description The reverse is printed entirely in red-brown on plain paper. A large central vignette executed in intaglio shows two putti engaged in artistic pursuits — one seated with a palette before a canvas on an easel, the other observing — set within an elaborate guilloche and foliate border frame. Numeral '1' appears in each of the four corners, with 'UNO' in cartouches at lower left and lower right, and a block of legal warning text occupying the lower margin in small letterpress type.
