| Obverse description | The centre of the note is occupied by an intaglio vignette of a seated classical female allegory, draped in flowing robes and holding a cornucopia, set against a lightly ruled background. Symmetrical guilloche rosettes printed in red and blue flank the central vignette on either side, each bearing the numeral '20' at the centre. The issuing authority 'CASA DE MONEDA DE MEDELLÍN' is inscribed in large bold letterpress across the upper portion of the note, with a certificate-of-deposit legend above and the denomination 'VEINTE PESOS / ORO ACUÑADO' in a bold banner along the lower centre, with three signature lines below. |
