| Descrizione del dritto |
A three-quarter left-facing male bust in classical drapery occupies the left portion of the note, engraved in intaglio by Régnier after Munier's design. A secondary vignette in the centre background renders a pastoral scene with standing figures, while a smaller classical female figure appears to the right. The issuing authority's name and territorial designation are printed in two-colour letterpress at upper centre, with the denomination in large numerals at upper right and the word NOUMEA in a vertical guilloche panel along the left margin. |

| Descrizione del rovescio |
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. |
