The central design consists of a blank heraldic shield reserved in white, flanked symmetrically on both sides by large intaglio-engraved acanthus leaf scrolls rendered in deep rose-brown on a fine guilloche background. The composition is enclosed within a double-rule border with a lace-pattern outer frame, and the printer's imprint THOMAS DE LA RUE & COMPANY, LIMITED appears at the foot of the note. |

Malta's 1949 Currency Note Ordinance provided the legal basis for this series, replacing wartime-era notes that had circulated under severe supply constraints. The island was still formally a British Crown Colony in 1951, and the note's authority derived from colonial statute rather than any local central banking institution — there was no Central Bank of Malta until 1968.
De La Rue's involvement was long-standing in Malta; the relationship predates this issue by decades and continued well past independence in 1964.
