| Obverse description | Green intaglio-printed note centred on an oval vignette of a seated allegorical female figure accompanied by a cornucopia and a llama, framed by an elaborate guilloche border. The bank title runs across the top in letterpress, with large numeral denominators flanking the central vignette against a fine lathe-work underprint. The date, place of issue (Lima), series designation, and three manuscript signatures appear in the lower portion of the note. |

| Reverse description | Printed in dark grey-green intaglio, the reverse is dominated by a central vignette of the Peruvian national coat of arms — a shield quartered with a vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia, encircled by laurel and palm branches — set within a circular guilloche frame flanked by two large rosette guilloche medallions bearing the numeral 5. The bank title is inscribed at the top, the denomination legend at the bottom, and the printer's imprint appears at the foot of the note. |
