| Reverse description | A central vignette in orange presents an engraved landscape view of the Montseny massif, rendered with fine line work evoking the rocky peaks and foothills, with a small rural structure visible at the base; a banner scroll inscribed "MONTSENY" arches above the mountain range. The denomination "PTES. 2'50" appears in large olive-green numerals along the left margin, set against a guilloche-patterned green border that frames the entire composition. A circular punch-hole cancellation is visible to the right of centre, consistent with the trial or specimen status of this note. |
