Obverse description A central allegorical vignette presents a seated female figure writing upon a tablet held by a cherub, with a bag of scattered coins at her feet; the composition is rendered in the classical intaglio style typical of Waterlow & Sons productions. The issuer name arches across the upper border, while the face value in numerals occupies all four corners and is repeated to the right of the central vignette, with the denomination in words below. Two red serial numbers appear in the upper field, and manuscript spaces are left blank for the handwritten date and authorising signatures.
