Descrizione del dritto	The Central Bank of the Philippines Type 1 seal — circular, bearing an allegorical vignette and dated 1949 — anchors the left of the face, set against a fine guilloche underprint in red. A large ornate numeral "5" dominates the centre, below which a ribbon cartouche carries the denomination legend, with the serial number positioned to the right. Two facsimile signatures appear at the foot — those of the President of the Philippines and the Governor of the Central Bank — accompanied by the legal tender clause at the lower right, all executed in red letterpress on cream paper within an intricate geometric border.

Commenti	Waterlow & Sons printed this series for the Central Bank of the Philippines under a contract arrangement that reflected postwar Manila's limited domestic printing capacity. Waterlow had long-standing ties to Asian and Pacific currency clients — including Malaya and Hong Kong — and the Filipino contract fit a familiar pattern of newly independent states outsourcing security printing to established British firms while building their own infrastructure. P#126 is among the lower-denomination notes of the 1949–1953 series and circulated hard. Survivors in collectible condition are underestimated by the market relative to their actual scarcity.
