| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue and red on a fine guilloche underprint. To the left, an oval portrait vignette presents Jan Amos Komenský (Comenius), identified by the inscription 'J. A. Komenský 1592–1670' beneath. The centre carries a large numeral '5' in red, flanked by a text panel stating the legal authority under which the note was issued and the date 'v Praze 28. září 1921', with the denomination 'pět korun československých' in bold letterpress at lower right. A facsimile ministerial signature appears at the lower right corner. |
