Signature lines for El Gerente, El Inspector, and El Secretario de Hacienda appear at lower centre, with a serial number in the lower right. |

Decorative corner ornaments and repeating border patterns complete the design, with the printer's imprint AMERICAN BANK NOTE CO. NEW YORK appearing at both top and bottom margins. |

The Estado Soberano del Cauca was one of nine sovereign states under Colombia's federalist Rionegro Constitution of 1863 — a constitutional arrangement abolished in 1886, the same year this note was issued. The timing is not coincidental. The centralist Regeneración movement under Rafael Núñez dismantled the federal system that year, and fractional notes like this one were emergency emissions as the old state banking structures collapsed into what would become the unified República de Colombia.
American Bank Note Company produced this for a government that, by the time the notes reached circulation, had technically ceased to exist as a sovereign entity.
