Beschrijving keerzijde	Plain unprinted paper reverse with a pale, aged yellowish tone consistent with the cotton paper stock of the period. Contemporary manuscript notations in ink are written diagonally across the right-hand portion of the reverse, likely recording interest or treasury transactions related to this note; such endorsements are characteristic of colonial government debenture-style issues in active circulation.
