| Obverse description | Printed in black and green on pink paper, the obverse presents a female portrait vignette at left and a military coat of arms at upper centre, with denomination numerals set within decorative cartouches at each corner. The central text panel, framed by ornamental borders, carries the issuing authority designation and the promise-to-pay legend in letterpress. The overall layout reflects the typographic and vignette-based design conventions typical of mid-nineteenth-century South American military emergency issues. |
