Obverse description The obverse is laid out horizontally with a large ornate guilloche monogram 'BP' in gold-orange at the left, flanked by a decorative border of repeated '10' numerals along all edges. The central text panel bears the issuer's name 'BANCO DEL PERÚ' in bold letterpress, followed by the promise to pay 'DIEZ SOLES en moneda corriente,' with the date 'Lima 1° de Enero de 1874' inscribed below. To the right, a dark medallion vignette encloses the numeral '10,' with the word 'DIEZ' repeated in the lower corners, and two manuscript signatures appear at the foot of the note.
