Obverse description Light blue floral underprint across the entire note, with an ornate engraved border of interlocking geometric and scrollwork elements. A crowned lion vignette in repose, set against radiating sunburst lines, occupies the top centre. The denomination panel at centre is formed by elaborate calligraphic scrollwork framing the word 'TVÅ' in an oval guilloche cartouche, flanked by 'Riksdr.' and 'Banco.' in bold letterpress, with the series letter and serial number hand-stamped at upper left and upper right respectively; two manuscript signatures appear across the lower centre, and the forgery warning text runs along the bottom in small letterpress.
