Obverse description Black on green guilloche underprint. A central oval vignette renders a steam locomotive with passenger carriages in intaglio, set against a landscape backdrop. The bank name arches across the upper portion in large bold lettering, with denomination numerals '2' in each lower corner and the place and date of issue at left and right respectively; two handwritten signatures appear below the central vignette over the printed titles INSPECTOR and DIRECTOR.

Reverse description Printed entirely in green. The bank name is split across two lines at centre — 'EL BANCO' in a rectangular panel at top and 'NACIONAL DEL PARAGUAY' in a broad central band — all surrounded by intricate engine-turned guilloche lacework. Denomination numeral '2' appears within elaborately engraved circular medallions at left and right, and the printer's imprint is present at the bottom margin.
