| Obverse description | Intaglio portrait of Norman Manley in three-quarter view occupies the left field, with his name inscribed below in a label; a central vignette of a banana palm tree fills the middle ground against a light guilloche underprint. The Jamaican coat of arms is positioned at the lower centre, flanked by denomination numerals in each corner, with the issuing authority's title across the top and the authorising law inscription along the lower margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse centres on a detailed intaglio vignette of the Old Parliament Building, rendered in a dark purple-brown tone against an intricately engraved guilloche border; the building is depicted in a three-quarter perspective with its distinctive colonial architecture, verandas, and surrounding fence clearly articulated. Denomination numerals appear in each corner within ornate frames, and the building's name and dates are inscribed below the central vignette. |
