| Obverse description | Blue intaglio note with the bank title arched across the top in bold letterpress within an ornate border. The central vignette shows a rural scene with two figures and a dog in a doorway, rendered in fine line engraving. To the lower left is an allegorical female figure seated with a shield bearing the Buenos Aires arms, and to the lower right a portrait bust of a military officer in uniform; the denomination "500" appears in large numerals at upper left and upper right within guilloche medallions. |

| Reverse description | Entirely printed in blue with a dense, symmetrical pattern of interlocking guilloche rosettes arranged in a grid across the full note surface. The central oval panel carries the denomination inscription in bold letterpress within a lozenge-shaped cartouche, flanked on either side by large numeral medallions. The overall design relies entirely on fine lathe-work geometry with no pictorial vignettes. |
