Obverse description Plain paper ground with an intricate engraved border composed of four corner vignettes — a church tower at upper left, a rural landscape at upper right, a basket of fruit at lower left, and a garden scene at lower right — all linked by ornate cartouche frames. A central oval vignette at the top portrays a rural genre scene with figures in a landscape. The issuer's name, BANQUE POPULAIRE DE LA BROYE, is set in bold letterpress across the centre, above the promise-to-pay text and the large denomination legend DIX FRANCS. Denomination numerals 10 appear at all four corners, with serial number and series references printed in the upper and lower margins, and three manuscript signature lines below the main text.
