The composition is framed by intricate guilloche borders and pre-Columbian decorative elements at the left margin, with the denomination 20 repeated in the upper right and lower right corners against a multicolor underprint in violet and green tones. The bank title BANCO DE GUATEMALA arches across the top, and VEINTE QUETZALES is inscribed along the lower center. |
