| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black and orange-brown tones, with the bank title EL BANCO DEL COMERCIO arching across the top in bold lettering flanked by two oval guilloche medallions each bearing the numeral 10. The central vignette presents an allegorical rural scene with a seated female figure surrounded by barrels, bales, and trade goods, with a harbour in the background; a secondary vignette at lower left shows a shepherd with sheep, and a portrait of a young woman appears at lower right. The denomination DIEZ PESOS BOLIVIANOS is inscribed in bold across the centre, with the promise-to-pay legend and the date Gualeguay, 1 de Julio 1869 below. |
