| Obverse description | Black intaglio-printed note with two allegorical seated figures flanking a central guilloche vignette: at left, a male figure representing agriculture holding a torch and sheaf of wheat; at right, a female figure representing commerce holding a ship model. The large ornate central medallion bears the numeral '50' within an elaborate engine-turned surround, with dual red serial numbers printed '000000' above 'SERIES DE 1918' and 'SERIE A' on each side. Red overprint 'SPECIMEN' appears twice across the lower portion, with three cancellation punch holes, and the printer's imprint 'AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY' appears at the bottom margin. |

| Reverse description | Printed in olive-green intaglio, the reverse is dominated by a large central vignette of the Aztec Sun Stone (Piedra del Sol), rendered in fine detail within an ornate scrollwork surround. The denomination numeral '50' appears in four corners within guilloche rosette panels, and a solid border of engine-turned lathe work frames the entire composition. The printer's imprint 'AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY' is present in the lower margin below the main frame. |
