Obverse description The obverse is printed in black on white paper with intricate guilloche borders and corner ornaments bearing the denomination numeral '50'. At left, a vignette of a standing rhea (South American ostrich) is enclosed within a decorative frame. The central text panel carries the bank name, promise-to-pay clause, and denomination in letterpress, with the date 'San Juan, 3 de Enero de 1876' and series and serial number printed above.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in green and pink, with an elaborate guilloche framework filling the entire surface and the denomination numeral '50' repeated in each corner and along the margins. A central pink underprint panel carries a classical portrait vignette — a bust in profile, likely an allegorical female figure — rendered in intaglio within a lace-like oval surround.
