| Obverse description | Black intaglio on blue guilloche underprint. An ornate arabesque and volute border frames the note, with the coat of arms of Suriname at the top centre — two indigenous figures flanking a medallion with a sailing vessel, below which a ribbon bears the national motto in Latin: Justitia Pietas Fides. The place and date are printed centrally, while a lower vignette illustrates the allegorical arrival of the first Europeans in Suriname, with figures exchanging offerings on a shoreline, trade goods stacked on the beach, and a sailing vessel anchored in a bay. Denomination numeral "50" appears in each corner, with Dutch-language text and two manuscript signatures of the Director and Director-President in black ink. |
