| Obverse description | Letterpress printed in black on plain paper. A vignette of a leopard appears at the upper left, with the national coat of arms at the upper centre. The note carries hand-applied manuscript signatures and a hand-written serial number, characteristic of early Paraguayan emergency issues. |

| Obverse lettering | UN PESO Nº REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY EN EL TESORO NACIONAL DE LA REPUBLICA se pagará al portador de este la cantidad de UN PESO valor recebido. (Translation: One Peso Republic of Paraguay In the National Treasury of Republic will pay the bearer One Peso amount received.) |
| Reverse description | Blank verso, entirely unprinted, bearing extensive manuscript inscriptions in Spanish cursive script covering much of the surface — a notable characteristic of this primitive hand-cut uniface issue, where the unused reverse was repurposed for personal notations. |
