| Beschrijving keerzijde | Blue intaglio print executed by the American Bank Note Company. The upper portion bears BANCO DE BOGOTÁ within an ornate ribbon scroll inscribed ESTABLECIDO EN 1771. A central vignette presents a monument — likely the Simón Bolívar statue in Bogotá — set against a landscaped park background, framed by elaborate guilloche borders on either side, each incorporating a large numeral 5 counter. CINCO PESOS appears in a banner at the bottom center, with EL CAJERO at lower left and a text block at lower right referencing the legal basis of the cédula. |

The Banco de Bogotá was a private commercial bank, not a state institution, and its note-issuing authority operated under Colombia's free banking period — a stretch of the late nineteenth century when multiple private banks held concurrent concessions to circulate their own paper. The American Bank Note Company handled most of the prestige printing work for Colombian issuers during this period, supplying notes to several competing Bogotá banks simultaneously.
The denomination "Pesos Oro Acuñado" — minted gold pesos — was a contractual specification tying the face value to coined metal rather than the depreciated paper peso, a distinction that mattered enormously to creditors and depositors as Colombian currency grew increasingly unstable in the 1880s and 1890s.
