| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed entirely in green, the reverse is dominated by a large central guilloche oval containing a landscape vignette with trees and what appears to be a fountain or garden structure. Four corner ovals, each richly patterned with lathe-work guilloche, bear the numeral 5, arranged symmetrically at the four quadrants. The overall design relies on intricate engine-turned geometric patterns with no additional text aside from a small printer's imprint at the bottom centre. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Banco de Mendoza was one of several provincial Argentine banks that issued their own currency during the brief free-banking period of the 1870s, before the national government moved to consolidate monetary authority. This 5 Pesos Moneda Boliviana note denominates in a currency unit tied to the Bolivian peso — practical in Mendoza, which maintained active commercial traffic across the Andes into Bolivia and Chile, where that monetary reference carried real meaning.
Provincial bank issues from this period were outlawed by the 1880s, and the Banco de Mendoza itself did not survive the subsequent centralization. Surviving notes are scarce largely because redemption was enforced, not because circulation was light.
