| Obverse description | The bank name arches across the top in letterpress, with dual serial numbers in the upper field and BELFAST inscribed along the lower margin. A vignette at top centre depicts a sailing ship alongside a dock crane, enclosed within ornate scrollwork borders. The word FIVE appears in large bold green guilloche lettering across the centre, overlaid on a fine lathe-work underprint. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in blue-green and composed of three interlocking guilloche rosettes arranged horizontally across the face. The central and largest rosette incorporates the interlaced bank monogram NBL at its core, surrounded by dense engine-turned lathe-work, while each flanking rosette bears the numeral 5 within similarly elaborate guilloche patterns. |
