The obverse is printed in black intaglio on a pale ground, with two large allegorical figures seated at left and right flanking the central text block — a female figure at left and a male figure at right, each rendered in classical style. The bank title BANQUE DE L'ALGÉRIE and denomination CINQ FRANCS appear in bold letterpress at centre, with the Arabic equivalent خمسة فرنك below, followed by the date 22 AVRIL 1873. A central oval cartouche at lower centre carries a printed anti-counterfeiting warning in French, and the denomination numeral 5 appears in each corner. |

The reverse is printed in blue-grey tones and centres on a large guilloche medallion bearing CINQ FRANCS and the Arabic خمسة فرنك, surmounted by a bold lion's head vignette at top centre within an ornate frame of acanthus scrollwork. Two smaller circular portrait vignettes are inset at left and right — a classical female bust to the left and a bearded male head to the right — each set within elaborate lathe-work borders. The numeral 5 appears in each corner, and the printer and engraver credits appear in small text along the lower margin. |
