Obverse description	Brown-violet tones over a multicolor underprint, with a portrait vignette of Dom Afonso V at right and the Portuguese Coat of Arms at upper center. The bank seal appears at left, set within a decorative guilloche surround. The overall design reflects the colonial-era intaglio engraving style characteristic of Bradbury Wilkinson productions.
