The centre carries the bold denomination 'CENTO LIRE' above the bearer clause, with two signature lines for the Direttore Generale and the Cassiere, and a red circular vignette at bottom centre bearing a female portrait in profile. An oval watermark area occupies the upper right field, framed by elaborate guilloche scrollwork. |
