| Reverse description | The reverse is a letterpress mirror impression of the obverse in pale green, printed directly through the note as a security measure, with the full text and design elements visible in reverse reading. The ornamental border, crossed hammer vignettes, guilloche underprint, denomination text in Fraktur, serial number, and issuer inscription are all legible in their mirrored form, confirming single-sided production with show-through as the principal anti-counterfeiting device. |
