| Reverse description | Printed entirely in red, the reverse is composed of three concentric guilloche rosettes arranged horizontally: a large central rosette built from an intricate pattern of interlocking circles within a scalloped outer border, flanked by two smaller circular guilloche medallions each bearing the numeral '20'. The plain white paper surround is unlettered, allowing the engine-turned geometric underprint to serve as the sole anti-counterfeiting device. A perfin cancellation is visible in the lower left quadrant. |
