| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue and presents a central vignette of a classical female allegory, laureate and draped, holding a small statuette, set within an arched architectural frame flanked by decorative pilasters. The bank title BANQUE DE L'INDOCHINE runs along the top border, with the denomination CINQ FRANCS along the bottom, while the anti-counterfeiting legal warning from Article 139 of the Penal Code appears at the upper left. Two manuscript signatures — those of the Director of the Branch and a fondé de pouvoir — appear at the upper right alongside the serial number and the place name NOUMÉA. |
