Obverse description Black intaglio on yellow underprint. At the left margin, a seated allegorical female figure holds a sword, while a second vignette at the right presents a seated Mercury; both figures are rendered in the fine engraved style typical of late 19th-century security printing. The central text panel is framed by elaborate guilloche ornamentation, with the issuer's name, place, denomination, and date set in formal letterpress type.
