The left panel carries a Seated Liberty vignette, the allegorical figure holding a plaque in her right hand and an olive branch in her left; at centre, the Mexican national arms appear as an eagle grasping a serpent in its beak while perched on a nopal cactus above Lake Texcoco, the volcanoes Popocatépetl and Ixtaccíhuatl rising in the background. Issuing authority text and date are set in bold letterpress above and below the central vignette. |

The Gobierno Provisional de México operated out of Veracruz under Venustiano Carranza after Huerta's fall, and the decision to have emergency currency printed in New York by a trading company rather than a bank note specialist says a great deal about the speed and improvisation of the moment. Parsons Trading Company at 17 Battery Place was a commercial importer-exporter, not a security printer — which is precisely why these notes lack the fine intaglio work you'd expect from a contemporaneous American Bank Note Company product.
Quality control across the series is inconsistent, and misaligned impressions are common enough to be considered normal rather than exceptional.
