| Obverse description | Printed in dark blue and black intaglio on white paper, the obverse is framed by a teal guilloche border enclosing the central Argentine coat of arms within an oval cartouche, with large ornate '50' numerals occupying each corner lozenge. A left-side vignette presents a gaucho scene with resting figures, while a finely engraved classical female portrait appears at lower right. The bold letterpress inscription 'EL BANCO NACIONAL' runs across the center, above the date line 'Buenos Ayres, Agosto 1º de 1873' and the promise text with spaces for the signatures of El Inspector and El Directorio. |
