| Obverse description | Printed in purple on paper, the obverse carries a central vignette of a view of Curaçao, set within fine guilloche underprint work typical of Enschedé engraving of the period. The bank title and denomination legend appear in letterpress above and below the central design, with two manuscript signatures of the Secretary and President of De Curaçaosche Bank positioned at lower left and right respectively. |

| Reverse description | Printed in brown on an intricate guilloche underprint covering the entire field, the reverse centres on a large ornate rosette medallion flanked symmetrically by the large numeral 25 on either side, each digit interlaced with floral guilloche ornaments. A block of Dutch-language anti-counterfeiting warning text occupies the centre of the medallion, set in gothic script. The overall design relies entirely on machine-engraved lathe work with no pictorial vignette. |
