Reverse description The Dutch-language face presents a central allegorical vignette of a seated female figure — personifying Belgium or Commerce — enthroned between two putti, with elaborate sculptural groups and column architecture in the background. The issuer legend "NATIONALE BANK VAN BELGIE" runs across the upper field in bold letterpress, with the denomination "VL-II FRANK" and the payable clause "BETAALBAAR OP ZICHT" below. The numeral "5" appears in guilloche cartouches at upper left and upper right, and a counterfeiting warning is printed along the lower margin.
