Obverse description Multicolour note with a dominant yellow-gold guilloche underprint and an orange-red banner at top bearing the bank title. A central intaglio vignette presents a bust portrait of a woman in classical attire within an oval frame, flanked by large black denomination numerals '1000' set in ornate cartouches. To the right, a second intaglio vignette depicts an allegorical seated female figure surrounded by mercantile attributes. Signature lines at lower centre are captioned 'Consejero', 'Cajero', 'Interventor del Gobierno', with the printer's imprint 'Compañia Americana de Billetes de Banco Nueva York' at foot.

Reverse description Printed predominantly in orange-red with black intaglio, the reverse is centred on a large allegorical vignette of a reclining female figure pouring water from an urn, with a cello resting behind her — a classical representation of abundance or music. The composition is framed by an arch inscription bearing the bank name and surrounded by intricate lace-pattern guilloche borders with denomination numerals '1000' repeated in each corner. A diagonal red overprint reading 'BILLETE SIN VALOR' cancels the note, and the printer's imprint 'American Bank Note Company, New York' appears at the foot.
