| Descripción del anverso |
Printed in red on plain paper with a simple rectangular border composed of fine typographic rules. The text of the note is set in letterpress, with the denomination 'ZESTIG' (sixty) rendered in large decorative script at centre, and the value numeral '60' appearing in a guilloche-style circular cartouche at upper left. The body of the note carries the full bearer clause in Dutch, with spaces left for handwritten issue date, serial number, and authorising signatures of the President, Directors, and Secretary of the Nederlandsche Bank. Eight distinct type variants of this note were issued between 1814 and 1862, with the denomination either written or printed depending on the type. |

Unprinted verso in plain paper, bearing only handwritten manuscript signatures of the authorising bank officials, consistent with the contemporary Dutch central bank practice of authenticating each note individually by hand. |

The 60 Gulden denomination is an oddity by any standard — not a round figure, not a convenient multiple, and largely absent from the banknote-issuing traditions of comparable European central banks of the period. Its existence reflects the Dutch monetary system's lingering ties to older accounting conventions, where 60 guilders corresponded to specific commercial settlement values rather than arbitrary decimal logic.
Enschedé had printed for the Nederlandsche Bank from its earliest years, and the relationship was essentially exclusive for much of the nineteenth century. Surviving examples from this long-running series are genuinely scarce; the Bank's own redemption and destruction practices were thorough.
