The inscription ESTADO DE ALAGOAS runs across the top, and the denomination 200 REIS is displayed in bold type flanking the portrait at centre. A curved banner below the vignette bears the legislative reference Lei Nº III de 5 de Agosto de 1895, while a sequence of numerals from 10 to 1 appears along the lower margin, likely serving as a coupon numbering guide. |
