| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in olive-green and brown tones on a cream paper ground, with an intricate guilloche underprint covering the entire field. The imperial Ottoman tughra appears in a circular vignette at the top centre, flanked by ornamental panels bearing fine geometric latticework. The denomination numeral '50' appears in large bold type at lower left and right, with Ottoman script legends in calligraphic Diwani style arranged across the centre, while two circular seal impressions — one reading 'LIVRES TURQUES' in Latin script — are positioned in the lower half of the note. |
