| Obverse description | Green intaglio print on white paper with an ornate guilloche border incorporating East Asian architectural and dragon motifs at the corners. The left half bears a large allegorical vignette in the classical French engraving tradition: a crowned female figure holding a caduceus is seated beside a kneeling Asian woman, rendered in fine line engraving by Léveillé after Dupuis and Duval. The denomination numeral "5" appears at upper left, with bilingual text in English and French — "FIVE TICALS / CINQ TICAUX" — occupying the right half alongside spaces for administrator and director signatures. |
