| Obverse description | A detailed three-quarter perspective view of the Banco Central del Paraguay headquarters building occupies the central field, rendered with fine architectural detail including horizontal banded facade elements and flanking trees at the base. The building is presented within a plain inner circle against a deeply mirrored proof field. The legend BANCO CENTRAL DEL PARAGUAY arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 10.000 GUARANIES is inscribed along the lower periphery. A beaded border encircles the entire design. |

Alfredo Stroessner's regime ran Paraguay from 1954 until his ouster in a February 1989 coup — making this 1987 issue one of the final numismatic productions to carry his name. The pairing of Bernardino Caballero, founder of the Colorado Party, with Stroessner was deliberate political messaging: the dictatorship consistently invoked Caballero's nationalist credentials to legitimize its own grip on the Colorado apparatus.
KM#171 was struck as a collector piece with no meaningful circulation life, part of a broader run of Paraguayan silver issues from the 1980s aimed at the international commemorative market.
