| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in dark blue-black and orange tones, with a central vignette of indigenous Bolivian agricultural workers — a woman carrying goods and a man laboring in a field — set against a rural landscape with thatched dwellings. Large ornate numeral '10' medallions in guilloche underprint flank the central scene on both left and right, with the bank title 'EL BANCO MERCANTIL' in bold letterpress across the top. The place of issue 'ORURO, BOLIVIA' appears at lower left, the date '1º de Julio de 1906' at lower center-right, and the denomination 'DIEZ BOLIVIANOS' with the promise clause 'PAGARÁ A LA VISTA AL PORTADOR EN MONEDA CORRIENTE' is inscribed centrally below the vignette. |
