Reverse description The reverse is printed entirely in blue and presents a detailed intaglio vignette of the Ulster Bank's head office building in Belfast, a grand classical-style structure with a broad flight of steps, colonnaded facade, and a statuary figure atop the pediment. The architectural vignette is framed within a rectangular border, surrounded by fine wavy-line guilloche work radiating outward to the note's edges. Ornate scrollwork flourishes flank the lower corners of the central frame.
