| Reverse description | Intricate brown guilloche design printed in a cruciform pattern radiating from a central shield bearing the bank's coat of arms with two rearing horses as supporters. Two circular medallions at the left and right each contain the interlaced monogram 'NBA' in elaborate script. A small ornamental cartouche at the bottom centre encloses the numeral '10', and the overall geometric lathe-work provides a dense, symmetrical security underprint across the entire field. |
