| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in dark ink on aged paper, with the issuer's name 'Compañía de Accionistas' arched across the upper centre in bold letterpress script. The denomination '5' appears in each corner within ornamental frames, and two seated allegorical female vignettes flank the central text panel — one at the lower left and one at the lower right. The central body carries a manuscript-style handwritten text reading 'Cinco Pesos Sencillos' in bold intaglio lettering, above a cursive promise-to-pay clause dated Caracas, 1 de Febrero de 1856, with 'Por la Direccion' at the foot. |
