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. |
