| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black on plain paper and is divided into three horizontal registers of ornamental typographic vignettes — floral and foliate arabesques — separated by rows of circular and geometric ornamental units. The central panel bears the letterpress inscription "BANCO." above "DIEZ DECIMOS" in bold serif capitals. The overall layout is characteristic of early 19th-century South American primitive letterpress note production, with decorative borders substituting for engraved pictorial vignettes. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is largely plain, showing aged and foxed paper with handwritten manuscript notations in ink, including what appear to be authorization or validation inscriptions in cursive script. A manuscript serial number is present in the lower right area. The surface displays significant aging consistent with a note of early 19th-century origin. |
