The note is printed over a multicolored underprint of red, blue, and green hues — the hallmark of the 'Rainbow Note' series — with ornate lathe-work guilloche borders framing the entire composition. Denomination and legal tender inscriptions appear in letterpress within the decorative panel. |

The "Rainbow Note" designation refers to the entire 1869 Legal Tender series, which replaced the drabber first-issue greenbacks with a deliberate shift toward polychrome printing as an anti-counterfeiting measure. The thinking was sound: reproducing precise color registration across multiple ink passes was far beyond the reach of most contemporary forgers.
Albert Sealey's engraving work on this denomination is among the finest produced by the BEP in its early years. The 1869 series was also the first to use a distinctive red serial number combined with a red Treasury seal — both features that collectors now use to quickly authenticate against later Legal Tender issues that superficially resemble them.
