| Obverse description | Dark green and red-orange letterpress note with a central vignette of the British Royal Arms — a lion passant guardant atop an imperial crown — set within an arched guilloche frame. Flanking the central vignette are two large denomination cartouches reading FIVE LIRE enclosed in concentric lathe-work rosettes, with the Arabic numeral ٥ and the legend ليرات at upper left and the numeral 5 and LIRE at upper right. The issuing legend ISSUED BY THE MILITARY AUTHORITY IN TRIPOLITANIA runs across the top, while a lower panel carries the Arabic text طبع بامر السلطة العسكرية لطرابلس الغرب within a ruled border, all set against a finely engine-turned guilloche underprint. |
