| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in blue and consists of two large interlocking guilloche medallions of fine lathe-work, each enclosing an inner ring of intricate geometric patterns and a blank central rectangle, likely intended for an overprint or control marking. The design is uncluttered by text, serving as a purely ornamental security underprint. Two cancellation punch holes are visible at the top, consistent with a trial or specimen example. |
