Reverse description The reverse is printed entirely in a fine repetitive guilloche underprint composed of the denomination numeral '150' tessellated across the full field in violet-grey ink, forming a dense security background. At the left, a vertical panel carries the endorsement text of 'La Centrale Finanziaria Generale S.p.A.' with a manuscript endorsement signature below the printed company name. A vertical legend at centre reads the circulation restriction clause, with the overall design serving an anti-counterfeiting function through the complexity of the repeated numeral pattern.
