The design is dominated by a central oval vignette containing a bull's head in three-quarter view, surrounded by an intricate guilloche border. Flanking the central vignette are two large ornamental numeral-1 medallions set within decorative rosette frames, and the whole composition is enclosed by a Greek-key pattern outer border. PROVINCIA DE SALTA appears in a curved banner at the top, and a text panel at the base cites the relevant provincial law and the conditions of acceptance of the obligations.
