| Obverse description | Printed entirely in black ink on white paper, the obverse carries the bank title in ornate copperplate script across the top, flanked by the denomination '$20' at each upper corner. At left, a small engraved vignette within a cartouche shows a seated allegorical figure surmounted by a crown. The promise-to-pay clause and denomination 'TWENTY DOLLARS' are set in bold letterpress at centre, with the serial number appearing twice in the middle register; below, a decorative guilloche panel bears the word 'Twenty' in elaborate script, and signature lines for Manager and Director appear at the foot alongside an Accountant entry line. |
