Obverse description	Green intaglio print on paper. A medallion vignette at upper left contains a helmeted portrait of Athena, while the Colombian Arms appear in a corresponding medallion at upper right, both flanking elaborate architectural guilloche columns. The denomination UN PESO is boldly lettered at center within a decorative cartouche, above the issue date and city, with the serial number printed in red at lower left and PESO counter-medallions at the lower corners.
Obverse lettering	EL BANCO NACIONAL DE LA REPUBLICA DE COLOMBIA Pagará al portador á la vista UN PESO BOGOTÁ, SEPTIEMBRE 1º DE 1886. (Translation: The National Bank of the Republic of Colombia Pay to bearer at sight One Peso Bogota, September 1st., 1886.)
Reverse description	Green intaglio print throughout, with an elaborate geometric and guilloche lathe-work design divided into two main panels. The left panel carries a large symmetrical vignette of crossed cornucopias with numeral 1 counters at each corner. The right panel bears the denomination UN PESO in large letters within a Greek-key bordered frame, overlaid at center by a prominent red oval bank seal. The printer's imprint appears along the lower margin.
