| Obverse description | Dark blue with a multicolour iridescent underprint, the obverse centres on an allegorical female figure rendered in intaglio, holding a globe — a vignette designed by Alonzo Earl Foringer and engraved for the American Bank Note Company. Fine guilloche work frames the central composition, with denomination inscriptions and the issuing authority's title integrated into the border design. |

| Reverse description | Printed in black and green over an ochre underprint, the reverse carries a central vignette of an allegorical couple derived from a composition by George Frederick Cumming Smillie, evoking the theme of the harvest as in his painting "The Reapers." Intricate lathe-work borders surround the vignette, with the denomination value and relevant textual inscriptions arranged within the upper and lower margins. |
