| Reverse description | Printed in brown on cream paper, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche underprint with symmetrical floral and scroll ornamentation filling all four corners. A central oval vignette presents a detailed intaglio view of a two-storey commercial building, likely the bank's headquarters, surrounded by a wreath-style border. The circular legend EL BANCO INTERNACIONAL DE GUATEMALA encircles the upper portion of the central vignette, with VEINTE Y CINCO PESOS inscribed along the lower arc. |
