The bank title 福建省銀行 appears in Chinese characters across the top panel, with the denomination 壹分 rendered in a blue scalloped cartouche at right. A blue overprint character 天 appears at left centre, two seal-stamped chop marks flank the serial number at bottom, and the printer's inscription 中華民國二十九年豐印 runs along the lower border. |
