Obverse description Black on orange-brown underprint, with a portrait vignette of Christopher Columbus at left and three manuscript signatures below. A vertical red overprint reading 'ESTE BILLETE VALE OCHO CENTAVOS DE CÓRDOBA' is applied across the face of the underlying P#44b 1 Peso note. Order numbers are printed in red, establishing the revaluation of this note in the new Córdoba currency system.

Reverse description Printed entirely in orange-brown, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche framework with two oval cartouches bearing the denomination 'UN PESO' flanking a central vignette of the Nicaraguan coat of arms — a triangle enclosing five volcanic peaks rising from the sea beneath a rainbow. The legend 'TESORO NACIONAL' arcs above the central design, with 'REPÚBLICA DE NICARAGUA' in bold lettering along the lower border and the printer's imprint below.
