| Obverse description | Tall elephant-column vignettes frame the left and right margins, while the lower centre presents an allegorical group of reclining female figures accompanied by an ox and a tiger. The design, executed in intaglio by Charles Wullschleger after compositions by Bramtot and Duval, is enclosed within ornate guilloche borders. Bilingual legends in French and English identify the issuing branch at Saigon and state the note's payable-to-bearer obligation. |
