| Reverse description | A three-quarter left-facing female bust, veiled and dressed in a dark bodice, is rendered in fine intaglio on the right half of the note. To the left, an elaborate vignette of a classical architectural plinth overflowing with fruit and grape clusters forms a cornucopia-style composition. A guilloche underprint frames the central blank panel, and an anti-counterfeiting warning cartouche appears at lower right. |
