| Obverse description | The central vignette carries a palm tree with a rising sun at its base, enclosed within an intricate guilloche border with repeated geometric patterning. The denomination '5/-' appears in the lower corners, with the serial number printed in red at the upper left and a circular guilloche rosette to the right. Two facsimile signatures of the Governor and Director are placed below the vignette, beneath an arched promise-to-pay inscription. |
