Obverse description The obverse is dominated by a central allegorical vignette at the top showing two female figures in a pastoral scene with livestock and a classical structure in the background. To the lower left, a smaller vignette portrays a seated gaucho playing guitar, rendered in fine intaglio. To the lower right, an intaglio portrait of a uniformed military officer. The denomination numeral '50' appears in lathe-work panels at each upper corner, with a red guilloche underprint overprint reading 'CINCUENTA PESOS' across the centre. Two manuscript signatures appear at the bottom above the printed titles 'Por el Inspector' and 'Por el Presidente del Banco'.
