| Obverse description | The left half of the obverse carries an intaglio landscape vignette of an industrial facility — likely a mining or smelting plant — set against an open sky, rendered in fine line engraving. At centre, a large denominational shield inscribed "10" is flanked by two allegorical female figures in classical dress, beneath an arched legend reading "Pagará en la Ciudad de Zacatecas"; below the shield, the value "Diez Pesos" appears in bold letterpress with the clause "á la vista al portador en efectivo." To the right, an oval portrait vignette of a uniformed male figure — likely a Mexican historical statesman — is set within a guilloche border, with denomination numerals "10" repeated in the upper corners and a yellow-green lathe-work underprint covering the field. |
