The obverse is dominated by a central vignette of the "Monumento al Pueblo Puntano de la Independencia" statue — a Christ-like figure with arms raised, surrounded by a group of citizens — set against an elaborate guilloche underprint in pastel hues of yellow, green, and rose. The provincial coat of arms of San Luis appears in the centre-left field within an ornate oval frame, flanked by two signature lines reading "CONTADOR GENERAL DE LA PROVINCIA" and "PRESIDENTE DEL ENTE ADMINISTRADOR" respectively. The header bears the large inscription "SAN LUIS" and "TITULO CONVERTIBLE" in red letterpress, with the denomination numeral "50" in blue at lower left and repeated at upper right alongside the serial number in red. |

The reverse is printed predominantly in black text on a light background with decorative guilloche borders in red and blue along the right and left margins. The centre is occupied by three numbered articles of the enabling legislation — Articles 1 (Emisión), 4 (Garantía de la Emisión), and 5 (Canasta de Monedas) — detailing the legal framework, guarantee provisions, and currency basket valuation of the título convertible under Ley Nº 5338. The denomination "50" and legend "SAN LUIS / VALOR NOMINAL" appear in large print at left, with a blue and red rhombus device and a rosette ornament at right. |

Provincial currency from San Luis sits in an awkward historiographical gap — Argentina's interior provinces issued their own notes during periods when the federal banking system either collapsed or simply failed to reach them, and San Luis was among the smaller, more financially precarious of these issuers. Ciccone Calcográfica, the Buenos Aires intaglio printer responsible for a significant share of Argentine provincial and national security printing through the late twentieth century, handled the physical production here.
The PS# reference being unassigned suggests this note hasn't been formally catalogued in the Pick Specialized series — worth flagging for any collector building a complete provincial Argentine run.
