Reverse description The reverse is printed in dark blue with an elaborate guilloche border incorporating floral rosette medallions and large numeral '2' devices at left and right. The central vignette, engraved with fine detail, presents a busy street scene before a grand neoclassical public building, with horse-drawn carriages and figures in the foreground and a church tower visible in the background. The lower margin bears the inscription 'IMPERIO DO BRAZIL' within a ruled panel, with the American Bank Note Company imprint along the bottom edge.
