| Obverse description | Intaglio-printed note in blue and sepia on tile-coloured paper, with a youthful portrait vignette of Dom Pedro II at upper centre. The central field carries the denomination and promissory text, flanked by a decree inscription at left and the Imperial coat of arms at right. Repeated numeral counters and the series designation frame the composition within an engraved border typical of Perkins, Bacon & Petch steel-plate work. |
