| Reverse description | A bold, high-relief forward-facing portrait bust of Hubert Nathaniel Critchlow, founder of the Guyana Labour Union, dominates the right-center field, rendered in a stark, modernist sculptural style with minimal drapery. The denomination 5 DOLLARS appears in two lines to the left of the effigy in the field. The legend COLLECTIVE WORK curves along the upper periphery, while the surname CRITCHLOW is inscribed along the lower border beneath the portrait. |
