| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in brown and dark olive tones and carries a wide panoramic vignette of the Luxembourg countryside: in the foreground a combine harvester works through a grain field, while cattle graze in the middle ground and a hilltop village with a church steeple rises against a rolling landscape in the background. The denomination figure 50 appears in each corner, and the inscription GRAND-DUCHÉ DE LUXEMBOURG runs across the upper margin within a fine ornamental border. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Caisse Générale de l'État was Luxembourg's state treasury cashier rather than a central bank proper — an unusual arrangement that persisted until the Banque Centrale du Luxembourg was established in 1998. This 50 Francs note was part of the last series the institution ever issued, printed by Bradbury Wilkinson in New Malden, Surrey, whose intaglio work for small European states was among the most technically consistent of any security printer operating in the postwar decades.
Luxembourg's franc was pegged at parity to the Belgian franc throughout this note's circulation life, meaning Belgian notes were equally legal tender — a monetary union dating to 1921 that made purely Luxembourgish paper something of a secondary instrument in daily commerce.
