Obverse description Printed in blue-grey intaglio on white cotton paper, the obverse carries the issuer's name 'ÖREBRO ENSKILDA BANK' in bold capitals across the upper margin, below which a heraldic coat of arms flanked by two allegorical figures and surmounted by a crowned cartouche forms the central vignette. The denomination is rendered in large calligraphic script as 'FEM' at centre with 'Kronor' to either side, while the numeral '5' appears within a dark oval cartouche in the lower panel. The Swedish redemption clause, series letter 'Litt. C.', manuscript signatures, and the date 'Örebro 1876' are inscribed within an ornate letterpress border framing the entire composition.
