Paraguay 1907 - Banco de la República 5 Pesos Issued Note (Pick 156)

The design is one of Waterlow & Sons’ most attractive small-denomination Paraguayan productions. The face features a central allegorical female portrait beneath the large Banco de la República title, flanked by ornate 5 Pesos denomination panels and framed by dense black intaglio ornament. Pale blue underprinting spreads across the lower half of the note, giving depth to the security design and separating the red serial number from the engraved black border. The Serie A designation, formal promise-to-pay wording, and engraved signatures reinforce the institutional character of the original issue. Read more →

The large blue ONE POUND panel, red serial numbers, ornamental denomination cartouches, and engraved borderwork create a layered design that remained close to the proof material of the same design family while functioning here as a completed issued note.
