| 裏面の説明 | Printed in green on white paper, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche underprint of radiating fan rosettes and interlaced lathe-work extending across the full width. At centre, the supported Royal Arms vignette shows a lion and unicorn flanking the quartered shield, with the motto 'DIEU ET MON DROIT' on a ribbon below; numerals '5' appear in guilloche cartouches at left and right. The bank title arches across the top and the incorporation legend runs along the lower margin, with the printer's imprint 'PERKINS, BACON & Co. Ld LONDON' in small type at the foot. |

The Colonial Bank had by 1925 been absorbed into Barclays Bank (Dominion, Colonial and Overseas) — the merger completed in 1926 — meaning notes of this date were issued in the final operational months of a bank that had traded across the British West Indies since 1836. Whether this note circulated under the Colonial Bank name or was redeemed immediately upon transition is a question that affects surviving populations more than catalogers typically acknowledge.
Perkins, Bacon had handled Colonial Bank printing for decades by this point, a relationship typical of British Caribbean issuers who rarely switched security printers mid-series.
