At upper centre, a classical allegorical vignette shows a seated female figure representing commerce, accompanied by a sailing ship and livestock in the background; flanking oval guilloche panels at upper left and right each bear the numeral '20'. The promise-to-pay text and denomination 'TWENTY POUNDS' appear in a ruled panel across the centre, with a further denomination cartouche at lower left and two manuscript signature lines above the printed 'For the BANK OF NEW SOUTH WALES' and 'MANAGER' designations. |
