At right, an oval guilloche frame encloses the Honduran national coat of arms, with the numeral 10 at upper right and the bank title BANCO CENTRO-AMERICANO across the top. The note carries printed signature lines for El Director, El Gerente, and El Mayor de Hacienda, with the imprint of the American Bank Note Co., New York at the lower margin. |
