| 背面描述 | A seated female figure representing Liberty occupies the central field, holding an olive branch in one hand as a symbol of peace and a sword and scales in the other as emblems of justice, rendered in a classical allegorical style. The date of issue, 1864, appears in the lower exergue beneath the figure. The composition is uncluttered, with the allegorical figure dominating the field against a plain background, consistent with the restrained aesthetic of mid-19th century South American pattern coinage. |

| 附加信息 |
Paraguay's monetary system in 1864 was effectively theoretical — the country had almost no functioning coinage of its own, operating largely on foreign currency and barter. This pattern was struck the same year Francisco Solano López drew Paraguay into the catastrophic War of the Triple Alliance against Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, a conflict that would kill an estimated 60–70% of the Paraguayan population by its end in 1870. Whether the pattern was intended as a foundation for a proper national coinage that the war then made impossible remains an open question, but no regular-issue 10 Reales ever entered circulation.
