The large numeral '500' appears in the centre, flanked by ornate scrollwork vignettes, with the bilingual denomination 'CINQUECENTO / FIVE HUNDRED LIRE' above and below. The inscriptions 'ISSUED IN ITALY' appear on both left and right panels, and the serial number in red is printed twice — once at upper right and once at lower left.
