| Reverse description | Printed in blue on cream paper, the reverse is divided into three vertical panels: the denomination numeral "20" appears in large bold figures within ornate lathe-work cartouches at left and right, while a central guilloche medallion of intricate geometric engine-turning occupies the middle. The bank name is split across two horizontal banners — "EL BANCO NACIONAL DEL" at the top and "PARAGUAY" at the bottom — with the printer's imprint "AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY, NEW YORK." in small type at the foot. |
