| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in dark grey-green intaglio and is dominated by an elaborate engine-turned guilloche pattern covering the entire field, with four large ornate medallions in the corners each bearing the numeral "1". The bank name THE NATAL BANK LIMITED is split across the upper and lower portions of the design in bold lettering, with the word ONE set within a central oval cartouche surrounded by intricate lathe-work rosettes. The overall design is entirely typographic and geometric, with no pictorial vignette, relying solely on complex guilloche underprint work for its decorative effect. |
