| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black intaglio on white paper. At left, a finely engraved portrait vignette of a young woman wearing an elaborate hat with ribbons and a lace-trimmed dress. The centre carries the large numeral denomination '0.20' within an ornate guilloche surround, flanked by manuscript text reading 'Págare al portador a la vista' and the date 'Enero de 1869'. The issuer's name 'EL BANCO DE LA PROVINCIA DE BUENOS AYRES' appears in bold letterpress across the top, with 'VEINTE CENTESIMOS FUERTES' below the central vignette, and a repeating micro-text border running along all four margins. |
