The Portuguese royal arms vignette appears at the left, while a circular bank seal with a steamship vignette is positioned at the right.

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in Chinese characters on a brown-toned cotton paper ground, with a decorative border of repeated geometric guilloche patterns framing the entire field. A Portuguese royal arms vignette within a laurel wreath is centrally placed in the upper portion, and the denomination value is rendered in a large vertical Chinese text panel set within an ornate rosette medallion at centre. Vertical columns of Chinese text appear along both lateral margins and at the top, identifying the issuing bank and the territory of Macau. |
