| Beschrijving keerzijde | A seated allegorical female figure, representing Justice or Liberty, occupies the central field, facing forward and holding a sceptre or staff in one hand and a balance scale in the other. She is flanked on either side by rising branches of laurel or palm, framing the figure in a wreath-like composition. The date 1867 is inscribed in the lower exergue beneath a straight horizontal line. The design is finely engraved with careful attention to drapery and facial detail, consistent with a presentation pattern strike. A milled border frames the entire reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Paraguay in 1867 was midway through the War of the Triple Alliance — the most destructive conflict in South American history, ultimately killing an estimated 60–70% of Paraguay's total population. That the government of Francisco Solano López was commissioning copper pattern coinage while facing simultaneous invasion by Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay says something about either extraordinary administrative inertia or deliberate optimism. No regular-issue 10 Reales copper coinage ever entered circulation.
Patterns from this period are presumed to have been struck in very small numbers, possibly abroad, as Paraguay's domestic minting infrastructure was essentially nonexistent.
