| Obverse description | Executed in purple and brown tones, the obverse carries the large sterling numeral '£5' within an ornate intaglio vignette of scrolling foliate guilloché to the left, while the Arms of Guernsey — three lions passant — appear within a circular intaglio medallion to the right, its border bearing the Latin legend of the Bailiwick. The title 'THE STATES OF GUERNSEY' and 'FIVE POUNDS' are set in bold letterpress across the upper portion of the note, with serial numbers flanking the denomination and a Treasurer's facsimile signature below centre. |
