Descrizione del rovescio	Printed in red-orange with a blue-grey guilloche underprint, the reverse is dominated by three oval portrait vignettes arranged horizontally across the centre: two smaller busts of male figures flank a larger central bust of a male figure, all rendered in intaglio. Corner counters display the numeral '10' in each of the four corners within ornamental frames, and a repeating guilloche border runs along all edges.

Commenti	The Banco de San Juan was one of several provincial Argentine banks chartered in the 1850s and 1860s under a fragmented federal banking system that allowed individual provinces to issue their own currency. San Juan, a small Andean province dependent on wine and mining, had limited commercial activity — which means notes from this bank saw restricted circulation and were not printed in large quantities. The undated "18__" format was standard ABNC practice for provincial Latin American clients: plates were engraved once, with the year left blank for hand-completion at time of issue. PS#1882 is among the scarcer San Juan entries in the Pick specialized catalog.
