At the top, a panel carries the inscription CURAÇAO. 1892, flanked by the denomination in numerals.

Below, a three-line Dutch-language bearer clause and a redemption statement are set in letterpress, with the serial number appearing twice and a manuscript signature at lower right. The printer's imprint Hamilton Bank Note Co. New York is visible at the foot of the note. |
