| Reverse description | Printed entirely in red, the reverse is dominated by a dense guilloche underprint filling the full field, centred on a large diamond-shaped rosette enclosing the numeral '50'. The composition is free of any pictorial vignette or textual legend beyond the denomination numeral, giving the design a purely geometric character. |
