| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in dark blue-black ink and carries the bank title EL BANCO DE VICTORIA in bold letters across the upper centre, with the legend PAGARÁ AL PORTADOR Y A LA VISTA below. To the left, a central vignette presents a harbour scene with sailing vessels and a horse-drawn carriage in a rural landscape. To the right, an intaglio portrait of a bearded gentleman in formal attire occupies the right panel. The denomination CINCO PESOS BOLIVIANOS is inscribed in large letters across the lower centre, with the additional line ó su equivalente en moneda de curso legal below, and the place and date VICTORIA, 1° de Abril de 1873 at the foot. |
