背面描述	The Jamaican coat of arms is rendered within a circular vignette at top centre, flanked symmetrically on either side by two large £5 denomination rosettes composed of intricate guilloche lacework in maroon. Below each rosette, a rectangular panel carries the value inscription in bold block lettering, all set against a pale green and maroon geometric underprint.

备注	Issued under wartime authority, this note belongs to a short-lived series produced for Jamaica while the island remained under British colonial administration and dollar convertibility was tightly controlled by London. The 1942 dating places it squarely within the sterling area's wartime exchange restrictions, when the movement of Jamaican currency was subject to the same Treasury controls applied across British possessions. De La Rue produced the series in London despite active Luftwaffe bombing campaigns — the firm's Bunhill Row premises had been destroyed in the Blitz the previous year, forcing operations to dispersed sites. High-denomination colonial notes from this period are disproportionately scarce; wartime shipping losses and post-war redemption programs eliminated much of the surviving stock.
