The central field carries a panoramic intaglio vignette of traditional totora reed balsas under sail on Lake Titicaca, with figures aboard and Andean peaks in the background; the caption 'LAGO TITICACA' appears below the scene. The bank name runs across the top, the denomination 'DIEZ SOLES DE ORO' is set in a bold panel at foot, and guilloche cartouches frame all four corners. |

Peru's 10 Soles de Oro denomination had a long run under the Banco Central de Reserva, and by the mid-1970s the series was already showing its age against accelerating inflation. The soles de oro would be replaced entirely by the inti in 1985, by which point the 10-sol note had become practically worthless in real terms — a victim of the chronic monetary instability that plagued Peru through the late Velasco and Morales Bermúdez governments.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement with Peruvian currency stretched back decades, making this a routine production assignment for the London printer rather than a new contract.
