Reverse description Printed entirely in orange, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche pattern with large numerals '50' at left and right within oval lathe-work frames. At centre, a vignette of the Nicaraguan coat of arms — an equilateral triangle enclosing five volcanoes above a rainbow and sea — is set within interlocking rocaille scrollwork. The bank name and denomination appear in bold letterpress above and below respectively, with the printer's imprint at the foot.
