| Reverse description | The reverse presents the mirror impression of the obverse printing visible through the thin paper, with no independent design elements, confirming this is a single-sided typeset issue. Extensive contemporary manuscript endorsements and annotations in ink are written across the face at various angles, including dated notations, which are characteristic of notes that circulated through official channels. The engraved border is faintly visible in reverse. |
