| Obverse description | Brown intaglio print on a light guilloche underprint with multicolour security rosette at centre. A three-quarter portrait vignette of Comandante Germán Pomares Ordóñez in military dress and hat occupies the right field, identified by caption below. A large numeral '20' within an oval guilloche medallion anchors the centre, with the denomination legend 'VEINTE CORDOBAS' in a solid panel beneath. The bank title 'Banco Central de Nicaragua' runs along the top margin, flanked by corner numerals, and three manuscript signatures appear along the lower register above their respective title captions. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in brown and orange tones over a multicolour guilloche underprint with purple and green ribbon motifs in the upper field. The left two-thirds carry a large vignette of Sandinista Popular Militias — a dense column of armed soldiers marching in formation — captioned 'MILICIAS POPULARES SANDINISTAS' below. To the right, a bold numeral '20' sits within an elaborate rosette of fine-line guilloche work. The denomination 'VEINTE CORDOBAS' is inscribed along the lower margin, with the bank title repeated at top and corner numerals at all four angles. |
