| Obverse description | Typeset letterpress note with a decorative engraved border framing the entire face. The issuer's name, S. MONTE DELLA PIETÀ DI ROMA, appears in large display type near the top, followed by the cedola text in italic script stating the note's payable value in Scudi Romani at ten giulj per Scudo to the bearer. A central ornamental panel encloses the denomination in words, flanked by repeating guilloche-style typographic ornaments. Manuscript register and number entries, along with handwritten authorisation signatures, appear in the lower portion of the note. |

| Reverse description | Plain paper reverse printed with the denomination in bold letterpress type, repeating the value in both numeral and written form across the entire surface in a grid-like pattern. The word QUARANTA alternates with the numeral 40, arranged in multiple rows, serving as a simple but effective anti-counterfeiting measure through repetition. A manuscript signature appears at the lower right. |
| Reverse lettering | 40 QUARANTA (Translation: Forty.) |
