| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in dark teal-green ink on pink-tinted paper, the obverse is framed by an elaborate engraved border of interlocking scrollwork and floral guilloche running the full perimeter, with the denomination numeral '25' repeated in the lateral panels. At upper centre, the Surinamese coat of arms appears within an ornate cartouche, while the central text panel carries the bank title in bold script above the bearer clause and denomination legend in both Dutch text and full-word form. Below, a vignette of a tropical riverside scene with a sailing vessel and palm trees occupies the lower register, with signature lines for Directeur and Directeur-President beneath. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is unprinted as a deliberate design choice, presenting the pink-tinted paper ground on which a faint mirror-image offset impression of the obverse design is visible in a lighter blue-green tone — a passive anti-counterfeiting measure characteristic of early colonial issues of this period. The transferred impression renders the coat of arms vignette, guilloche border, central denomination text, and lower riverside vignette in reverse orientation, visible particularly when the note is held to light. |

| Opmerkingen |
De Surinaamsche Bank was established in 1865 as the sole bank of issue for the Dutch colony, and this series — running nearly two decades — reflects a period of relative monetary stability built largely on sugar and later bauxite revenues. The offset back print used as a security device was a pragmatic colonial-era solution, cheap to implement and reasonably effective against the local counterfeiting threat, which was not negligible in Suriname during this period.
Surviving examples from the earlier years of the issue range are considerably scarcer than those from the 1900s. The tropical climate was brutal on paper stocks.
