| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed rendering of an early biplane — representative of the aircraft flown by Silvio Pettirossi during his pioneering 1914 flights — prominently occupying the central field. The large numeral '100' is superimposed over the aircraft's fuselage, with the denomination 'Guaranies' inscribed below. The upper field carries the curved legend 'BANCO CENTRAL DEL PARAGUAY', while the inscription 'PRIMER VUELO 1914-2014' appears beneath it, commemorating the centennial of the first flight. The overall design is executed in high relief against a smooth field, consistent with a commemorative issue. |
