| Obverse description | Printed in black over a polychrome underprint using intaglio and lithographic techniques, the obverse is centred on a vignette of a female bust personifying the Republic and Liberty — an allegorical figure in the manner of Marianne — flanked on either side by the denomination numeral 50. Ornamental guilloche work frames the central vignette, while the full text of the note's legal obligation, citing Law No. 5108 of 18 December 1926, runs across the face in formal letterpress. The printer's imprint of the American Bank Note Company appears at the lower margin. |
