| Obverse description | A portrait vignette of Francisco de Oliveira Chamiço is positioned at left, with the bank seal at right and colonial arms at lower centre. The denomination in words is rendered in intaglio lettering across the face of the note, framed by guilloche underprint patterns executed in a classical early twentieth-century engraved style typical of colonial currency issues. |
