Obverse description Black and orange intaglio print on white cotton paper. The centre carries an oval portrait vignette of a distinguished gentleman in formal attire, framed by fine guilloche scrollwork. The bilingual issuer title 'LA BANQUE NATIONALE' arches across the top, with the date 'QUEBEC, LE 2 NOVEMBRE 1922' below, and the denomination appears in both French ('CINQUANTE PIASTRES') and English ('FIFTY DOLLARS') flanking the central vignette; the word 'SPECIMEN' is overprinted in red on both sides.
