| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue-grey tones and carries, at left, a large allegorical vignette of a seated female figure — representing the Argentine Nation — draped in classical robes and holding a torch aloft, with a coat-of-arms cartouche at her side. To the right, the denomination numeral '10' appears within an ornate guilloche frame, above the printed text stating the obligation to pay the bearer on demand. The lower portion bears the issuing authority 'CAJA DE CONVERSION', the date of the enabling law, and two manuscript signatures above their printed titles. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is rendered in olive-green and displays a symmetrical layout dominated by elaborate guilloche lacework bordering the entire field. The central area presents the denomination inscription 'DIEZ PESOS' within a rectangular panel framed by ornamental scrollwork, flanked on the left by a numeral '10' medallion and on the right by an oval vignette frame; the upper centre carries the republic's name above a small eagle device. A large blank white rectangle occupies the lower central zone, characteristic of trial or proof impressions. |
