| Beschrijving voorzijde | The note is set within an elaborate guilloche border of dense scrollwork and foliate ornament framing a plain central panel. The denomination VEINTE PESOS appears at the top of the panel alongside a handwritten serial number, followed by a two-line text in Spanish stating that the junta directora will pay the bearer in current metallic coin the equivalent amount one year after the peace. Multiple manuscript signatures appear below the body text, with a final warning legend at the foot reading that the law punishes with the death penalty those who falsify or are accomplices. |

| Opmerkingen |
Corrientes issued its own currency intermittently from the 1820s onward, functioning as a quasi-independent monetary authority long before Argentine federal consolidation made such arrangements untenable. The province's notes from this period were printed under extremely limited technical conditions — no access to the established European security printers, minimal anti-counterfeiting measures, and a local economy where cattle and yerba mate moved more reliably than paper.
PS#1304 is among the earlier substantial denominations from this issuer. Surviving examples are rare, and most known specimens show the kind of handling that suggests actual commercial use rather than archival storage.
