| Obverse description | The upper central vignette presents two allegorical female figures reclining in a pastoral landscape with classical architectural ruins in the background. To the lower left, a gaucho seated on the ground plays a guitar, rendered in fine intaglio engraving; to the lower right, a portrait vignette of a uniformed military figure in profile. The denomination '50' appears in large guilloche-framed numerals at the upper corners, with the issuer's name 'PROVINCIA DE BUENOS AYRES' in bold letterpress across the centre, above the handwritten date and printed legend 'CINCUENTA PESOS moneda corriente' in red. |
