The upper left bears the Central Bank of Malta coat of arms alongside the bank title in Maltese, while a multicoloured guilloche underprint with dove motifs and geometric arabesques fills the centre. The denomination 'HAMES LIRI' appears in large letterpress text at centre, with serial numbers printed in black at left and lower right. |
