To the right, a large guilloche medallion serves as the watermark window, with the denomination ONE POUND in bold letterpress at lower right and an Arabic script inscription at lower left. The note is dated 15th September 1958 at lower centre, with three facsimile signatures below the date line and serial number at lower left. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a detailed intaglio vignette of a cocoa harvest scene: at centre-left, several figures sort and process cocoa pods around large wicker baskets, while at right a standing male worker holds a cocoa branch against a background of tall cocoa trees with foliage. The composition is framed by an ornate guilloche border in red-brown tones, with the issuer name at top and denomination at bottom within a solid panel. |
