A central vignette presents a portrait of an indigenous Peruvian woman in traditional dress, flanked by two allegorical female figures — one to the left in classical robes and one to the right in a flowing gown. The bank title 'EL BANCO NACIONAL DEL PERÚ' appears across the top, with the denomination '1' in ornate numeral cartouches at each corner, and the place of issue 'LIMA' at the bottom centre alongside a manuscript date. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Nacional del Perú was established in 1872 with backing from a consortium of private investors, and its note issue coincided almost exactly with Peru's deepening fiscal crisis — the guano boom was collapsing, foreign debt was spiraling, and the government was increasingly leaning on private banks to backstage state finances. The ABNC contract for this series reflected a broader regional pattern: Peruvian institutions routinely turned to New York engravers rather than European firms during this period, partly for cost and partly for faster turnaround.
The bank itself survived less than a decade before the War of the Pacific and the Chilean occupation of Lima effectively ended its operations.
