| Obverse description | Brown-tinted note with a central guilloche medallion bearing the numeral '40', flanked by the Argentine coat of arms and framed by two classically rendered allegorical female figures seated at left and right — one holding a lute, the other attended by a spinning wheel — executed in fine intaglio style. The issuer legend 'EL BANCO NACIONAL' is set in bold letterpress across the centre, with the place and date 'BUENOS AYRES, AGOSTO 1.º DE 1873' running along the upper margin. A printed promise-to-pay text in Spanish occupies the lower register, above two manuscript signatures and a series designation. |
