To the right, the bank title "BANCO DE QUITO" appears in bold letterpress within a decorative panel, below which the denomination "VALE UN PESO" is printed in large script. The date "Quito, Enero 2 de 1880" is hand-inscribed across the lower portion, flanked by the serial number in red and the phrase "EN MONEDA CORRIENTE," with two manuscript signatures of bank officials at the bottom. |
