Obverse description A lotus plant vignette in fine intaglio line work — showing bloom, bud, and broad leaves — occupies the left portion of the note against a dense guilloche underprint in red and green. The denomination numeral "5" appears at upper left and within an elaborate rosette at upper right, with a further guilloche medallion at lower right bearing the date 1946. Bilingual central inscriptions in Dutch and Malay are flanked by two manuscript signatures above the titles SECRETARIS and PRESIDENT, with the printer's imprint of Joh. Enschedé en Zonen at lower centre.
