| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in red on white paper in a rudimentary letterpress style, the obverse carries a vignette at left of a lighthouse with an adjacent structure, and a schematic gateway or tiered monument at right, with the large numeral '25' and the written denomination 'DUA PULUH LIMA RUPIAH' occupying the centre field. Decorative floral rosettes occupy the four corners, and a laurel wreath frames the serial number at the bottom centre, flanked by two handwritten signatures above — one at lower left attributed to the Panitia Keuangan and one in Arabic script at lower right for the Residen Banten. The date 'SERANG, 15 DESEMBER 1947' appears at lower right. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed entirely in red on white paper in the same letterpress technique, with a bold ornamental border of scrolling foliage and stylised wave motifs. Numerals '25' appear in decorative cartouches at both the left and right of the central text panel, which contains the anti-counterfeiting legal warning in Indonesian. The overall composition is unadorned save for the border ornamentation. |

| Opmerkingen |
One of dozens of local emergency currencies issued across the Indonesian archipelago during the revolutionary period — when the newly proclaimed Republic faced a Dutch blockade, chronic paper shortages, and no functioning central bank capable of supplying remote residencies. Banten's administration printed its own scrip out of practical necessity, not monetary ambition.
These provincial issues were typically produced on whatever paper and equipment local government offices had on hand, which accounts for the wide variation in print quality seen across surviving examples. Banten had a reputation for fierce anti-colonial sentiment dating back to the 1888 revolt, and the residency was quick to assert its own administrative structures during the revolution.
