| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in two colours — dark brown for the border and frame lettering, and green for the central vignette — with BANCO NACIONAL ULTRAMARINO across the top and VINTE AVOS along the bottom. At centre, a circular medallion encloses a detailed intaglio vignette of a steam cargo vessel at sea, surrounded by the legend BANCO NACIONAL ULTRAMARINO / INDO COMMERCIO AGRICULTURA, all set within elaborate guilloche rosette panels. The denomination 20 / AVOS appears in large numerals within ornate cartouches to the left and right of the central medallion, with TIMOR inscribed on a scroll above it. |
