| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in teal on paper with a dense guilloche wave-pattern underprint across the entire surface. At the centre, an ornate cartouche with pointed and scalloped borders, framed by floral rosettes at the top and bottom, contains the principal text in Gothic script. The overall design is spare, relying entirely on the guilloche background and the decorative cartouche for visual structure. |
