| Obverse description | Elaborately engraved note in olive-brown tones, dominated by a central octagonal text panel framed by intricate strapwork and foliate scrollwork. At the top, the Papal coat of arms — crossed keys beneath the tiara — is flanked by two putti and winged griffins amid baroque ornament, while allegorical female figures seated on pedestals occupy the left and right lateral vignettes. A grotesque mask and drapery swag anchor the lower border, with the denomination 'BONO di SCUDI CINQUANTA' set in bold display lettering at the centre of the panel, beneath the issuing authority text and above the series, category, and serial number line. |
