| Reverse description | The reverse is the mirror image of the obverse printed in light grey, visible as a see-through ghost impression of the obverse design elements including the central vignette, side vignettes, and inscriptions, consistent with the single-sided intaglio printing practice of this issue by the American Bank Note Company. |
