Obverse description	A central letterpress vignette of a sailing ship printed in red-brown ink occupies the middle register, flanked on either side by oval denomination cartouches reading RS1$000. The bank title BANCO NACIONAL ULTRAMARINO arches across the upper margin in bold serif lettering, with the denomination MIL REIS set within a shaded rectangular panel below the ship vignette. The lower portion carries manuscript text referencing the Lisbon issue date and the Tesoureiro da Sucursal em Loanda, completed by handwritten signatures of bank officials.
