| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed entirely in golden-brown intaglio, the reverse is covered edge-to-edge with an intricate geometric lathe-work pattern composed of nine symmetrical panels, each enclosing a distinct guilloche rosette or star ornament. The central horizontal band bears the inscription IMPERIO DO BRAZIL flanking a globe device within a circular star border, with the numeral 5 repeated at each lateral extremity. No pictorial vignettes appear; security is achieved entirely through the density and complexity of the engraved guilloche work, with the imprint AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY NEW YORK in small type at the lower margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Thesouro Nacional — Brazil's National Treasury — issued this series through the American Bank Note Company at a moment of genuine institutional instability. The 1880s saw repeated conflicts between the Treasury and the Banco do Brasil over the right to issue paper currency, with competing notes circulating simultaneously and public confidence in government paper chronically low.
ABNC's New York production is identifiable by the quality of the intaglio work, characteristic of the company's Brazilian contracts throughout this period. The A264 prefix designation places this among the earlier Pick assignments in the Imperial Brazilian sequence, predating the republic's monetary reorganization of 1890.
