| Descrizione del dritto | A central intaglio vignette portrays a mounted charro on horseback herding cattle across an open pastoral landscape, rendered in fine line engraving with a dark blue-black ink on a cream ground. Large guilloche rosettes bearing the numeral '10' flank the vignette on either side, with orange and blue underprint elements adding chromatic contrast. The bank title arches across the top in bold letterpress, while the denomination 'DIEZ PESOS / VALOR ORO NACIONAL' appears in a decorative panel at the foot of the note, above a ruled signature area with three printed role designations. |

| Descrizione del rovescio | The reverse is printed entirely in orange-brown on cream paper and centers on a circular vignette of the Mexican national coat of arms — an eagle perched on a cactus with a serpent in its beak, surrounded by a laurel wreath — enclosed within a beaded medallion. Large numeral '10' counters in guilloche rosettes occupy the left and right fields, with elaborate scrollwork and lathe-work borders filling the remaining space. The bank name is split across two letterpress panels, 'BANCO DEL' at the top and 'ESTADO DE CHIHUAHUA' at the foot, with the printer's imprint 'AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY, NEW YORK.' at the very bottom. |

El Banco del Estado de Chihuahua was a state bank operating under the Porfirian banking framework, but by 1913 that framework had collapsed entirely. The Revolution had rendered most provincial bank notes unreliable at best — Chihuahua was Pancho Villa's home territory, and the competing currencies circulating through the state that year included both official issues and Villa's own printed obligations. Whether this note saw meaningful commercial circulation or was simply displaced by revolutionary scrip almost immediately after issue is an open question.
American Bank Note Company produced the series in New York under contract, as they did for numerous Mexican state banks of the period. The S133 Pick reference places it within the broader Chihuahua state bank series, which was effectively defunct within a year of this printing.
