| Reverse description | The reverse is executed entirely in multicolour guilloche work, combining blue, green, orange, brown and purple lathe patterns arranged symmetrically around a central oval cartouche. The inscription 'GOVERNMENT OF FIJI' is set within the central cartouche on a fine wavy-line guilloche ground, while a blank circular reserve at the right corresponds to the watermark position. The overall design, devoid of any pictorial vignette, relies solely on the intricate engine-turned lathe work for its security and aesthetic effect. |
