| Obverse description | Plain letterpress note on aged paper, with the heading CONFEDERACION and the legislative authority LEY DEL 27 AGOSTO 1811 across the top. Two circular typeset vignettes appear on the left — the larger bearing the circular legend ESTADOS UNIDOS DE VENEZUELA and the date 1811 around a central sunburst motif, and the smaller carrying an additional official seal — flanking the central denomination inscription QUATRO PESOS in bold letterpress. The right border carries the vertical text AÑO PRIMERO DE LA INDEPENDENCIA, while the left border reads HIPOTECADO SOBRE LAS RENTAS NACIONALES DE LA CONFEDERACION, with manuscript serial number, folio, and tomo designations handwritten in period ink. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is essentially plain, printed on unadorned paper with no typeset design elements. Manuscript notations in period handwriting are visible, consistent with the administrative practice of the era, with faint bleed-through from the obverse letterpress impression discernible across the surface. |
