Uruguay 1867 - Banco Oriental 10 Pesos = 1 Doblón de Oro Sellado Handwritten Right-Side Signature Serial 55818 Issued Note (Pick S385a)

Systematic comparison of known surviving examples demonstrates that right-side signature placement represents the original spatial logic of the design. This same position was later retained when handwritten signatures were replaced by mechanically printed facsimile signatures, indicating continuity of layout rather than redesign. The signature position therefore functions as a structural marker of the initial authorization model rather than a decorative choice.
