Obverse description The central vignette presents a lakeside pavilion at left and a multi-arch stone bridge at right, set against a clouded sky rendered in fine intaglio line work. Two red seal impressions appear in the lower corners, flanking the denomination 貳佰圓 in large bold characters at centre. The issuing authority and bank name legends run along the upper and lower margins in traditional right-to-left Chinese script.

The year '1949' appears at the base of the central medallion, with the bank name inscribed in Chinese characters along the upper margin.
