| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse, printed in blue-grey intaglio, is headed by the Dutch-language bank title within an ornamental Gothic border. The central composition presents the large denomination numeral '1000' and the legend 'DUIZEND FRANK' above a detailed architectural vignette of the Grand-Place in Brussels, flanked by heraldic lions in the upper corners. To the right, a seated allegorical female figure reading a large tome is set beneath a Gothic arch, integrating the figurative and architectural elements of the design. |

Belgium's post-WWI reconstruction period placed enormous strain on the Banque Nationale, and high-denomination notes like this 1000 Franc issue were central to financing public debt that had ballooned under German occupation. The franc itself was losing ground against gold throughout these years, a slide that would culminate in the Belga reform of 1926 — meaning the later dates in this issue's range effectively mark the final years of the unconverted franc system.
Paper quality on this series is notoriously uneven; notes issued toward 1925–1926 show more pronounced foxing than earlier printings, likely due to wartime disruptions to raw material supply chains that still hadn't fully normalized.
