The face bears the denomination in large numerals alongside the issuance date, two authorising signatures, and the statutory gold conversion clause stating the litas content in pure gold, all set against a guilloche underprint. Text is arranged in a formal typographic layout typical of early interwar Lithuanian banknote production by Bradbury Wilkinson. |
