| Beschrijving voorzijde | The face of this 1871 Rosario issue is divided into left and right panels separated by a vertical ornamental border. The left panel carries the denomination '50 Pesos' in large letterpress type alongside the manuscript date '11 de Noviembre 1871' and a serial number in red. The right panel bears a central vignette of a standing classical figure at left, an oval portrait of a bearded gentleman at upper right within a fine-line guilloche frame, the bank title 'BANCO DE LONDRES Y RIO DE LA PLATA' in bold lettering, a blue underprint reading 'VALE 50 PESOS', multiple printed serial numbers, and a promise-to-pay text in Spanish at centre, all enclosed within an intricate geometric lathe-work border with the city name 'ROSARIO' at top. |

| Opmerkingen |
Banco de Londres y Río de La Plata was a British-owned institution operating under Argentine provincial charter — one of several foreign banks that filled the credit vacuum left by chronic domestic banking instability in the Río de la Plata region. The Rosario branch issued its own notes independently of the Buenos Aires head office, which is why PS1743 carries a distinct catalog identity. Rosario was booming in 1871, driven by grain export trade along the Paraná, making high-denomination commercial paper like this genuinely functional rather than ceremonial.
1871 is also the year a catastrophic yellow fever epidemic devastated Buenos Aires, collapsing confidence in the capital's financial institutions and paradoxically reinforcing Rosario's position as an alternative commercial center.
