| Obverse description | Black letterpress on a blue underprint, with the denomination repeated in large grey guilloche letters across the centre field as a decorative underprint. The heading "TESORERIA GENERAL DEL ESTADO" is set in bold display type, beneath which the bearer clause and value "DIEZ=$10=PESOS" appear in a prominent central band. The date "Chihuahua, 10 de Diciembre 1913" and the printed authority of Provisional Governor General Francisco Villa are placed below, with two manuscript signatures occupying the lower portion; red serial numbers and series letter are printed in the upper margin, and a repetitive ornamental guilloche border frames the entire note. |

| Reverse description | Plain buff-coloured paper with a sparse typographic layout printed in dark blue-black ink. The denomination "Diez Pesos" appears in large serif display type at left and right, flanking the central numeral "$10", all set between two horizontal rules. A circular official seal of the State of Chihuahua — bearing the state eagle arms and the legend of the Tesorería — is applied in brown-purple ink over the central numeral, serving as a validation stamp. Faint ghost images of the obverse text show through the thin paper. |
