| Obverse description | The obverse carries the issuing bank's name, BANCO DE LONDRES MEXICO Y SUD AMERICA, in a bold letterpress legend across the upper field, flanked by serial number panels reading A 25306 at left and right. A central guilloche underprint in pale orange-red bears the denomination DIEZ SOLES in large letterpress text, overlaid by a manuscript handwritten signature and date notation. The overall layout is typical of 19th-century South American private bank issues, with decorative border elements framing the note. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents an elaborate intaglio-style engraved design composed of dense foliate scrollwork and interlocking arabesque vignettes filling the entire field, framed by a continuous geometric border of repeating diamond and arrow motifs along all four edges. The intricate lathe-work pattern, rendered in pale tones on the aged cotton paper, is characteristic of 19th-century security printing intended to deter counterfeiting. No denomination or textual legend appears on this side. |
