| Obverse lettering | بنك سوريا ولبنان الكبير خمسة وعشرون ليرة ٢٥ |
| Reverse description | The reverse is rendered in warm polychrome tones centred on a vignette of a historic fortress or citadel set against a pale sky, framed by two tall arched panels filled with intricate arabesque floral motifs in the Art Nouveau manner. The inscription 'BANQUE DE SYRIE ET DU GRAND-LIBAN' runs across the upper register beneath the cartouche 'GRAND-LIBAN', with the bold legend 'Vingt Cinq Livres' below, and a redemption clause in smaller French text beneath. Numeral '25' appears in circular cartouches at upper left and upper right, while a central white void mirrors the obverse, confirming the trial nature of the note. |
