Obverse description	The obverse is printed in brown and black on white paper, with the bank title 'El Banco del Pobre' in large ornate script across the upper centre, above a central guilloche oval bearing the denomination 'DIEZ PESOS' in bold letterpress. To the left, a standing allegorical female figure in classical robes holds a wreath and staff, flanked by a decorative vignette below. The upper margin carries the legend 'REPUBLICA DE CHILE' and the place of issue 'Santiago de Chile'; a five-pointed star vignette appears at the lower right, with the serial number and denomination panels repeated on the left stub.
