| Obverse description | Black intaglio printing on white paper with a green guilloche underprint. Two portrait vignettes occupy the left and right fields, each showing a bust-length male figure in formal attire facing inward toward the centre. The central panel carries the denomination numeral '50' within an ornate cartouche above the legend 'FIFTY DOLLARS', with the bank title 'Bank of Montreal' in bold script at the top and the date 'Montreal, Jan. 2nd 1923' inscribed below; serial numbers appear in red at upper left and upper right, and two facsimile signatures of bank officials run across the lower portion of the note. |

Large numeral '50' panels occupy the left and right fields within elaborate lathe-work guilloche borders, and the bank title 'BANK OF MONTREAL' arches across the top while the denomination legend 'Fifty Dollars' appears in a panel at the foot of the note. |
