Obverse description A classical allegorical female figure holding a torch stands at left within an elaborate intaglio vignette, accompanied by symbols of commerce and agriculture including a map scroll, ledger, and fauna, with a building in the background; the issuer title 'SOCIEDAD FOMENTO TERRITORIAL' curves across the top in bold letterpress, below which 'Titulo al portador' appears in italic script flanked by the hand-written serial number and face value cartouches. The body text, printed in letterpress, sets out the bearer bond terms in Spanish, dated Montevideo, 1 June 1868, with two manuscript signatures below for El Contador and El Presidente. A green guilloche border frames the entire note, with the issuer name repeated vertically along the left margin.
