Reverse description The reverse mirrors the obverse format, printed in red and black over a green underprint, with the equivalent authority text rendered entirely in Hungarian. The Hungarian coat of arms occupies the lower right, serving as the principal vignette in place of the Austrian arms on the face. Signature lines for the corresponding Hungarian-titled officials are arranged in the same typographic manner, reinforcing the note's exclusive validity within the camp perimeter.
