| Obverse description | The obverse is dominated by a large central vignette of Mayon Volcano rising above a pastoral landscape, rendered in fine intaglio engraving in dark green and black tones. The denomination '20' appears in large numerals at left and right, with the legend 'PHILIPPINES' in bold letters across the upper portion of the note and 'TWENTY PESOS' in block lettering along the lower border. A circular Commonwealth of the Philippines red seal is applied to the right side, and two manuscript signatures appear at the lower left beneath the serial number prefixed 'E116129E'. |
