Reverse description Central vignette of the Haitian National Coat of Arms — a palm tree surmounted by a Liberty cap, flanked by cannon and cannonballs with a trophy of flags and anchors — set within an ornate oval frame. The composition is framed by symmetrical guilloche rosettes carrying the denomination numeral, with the bank title at the top and UNE GOURDE in a panel at the base. A bilingual legal text panel beneath the arms states the note's payability at the bank's Port-au-Prince counter and provincial branches, with the printer's imprint WATERLOW & SONS LIMITED, LONDRES at the foot.
