| Reverse description | Printed in green, the reverse centres on an intaglio vignette of the bank's main branch building, a classical stone structure rendered in fine architectural detail with pedestrians visible at street level. Flanking the central vignette are two large numeral '5' counters set within ornate lathe-work rosettes. The bank's bilingual title runs along the top and bottom borders within a heavily guilloche-patterned frame. |
