| Reverse description | Large intaglio vignette at left illustrates a group of longshoremen loading cargo — barrels and bales — labelled COMMERCE, rendered in a classical allegorical style. To the right, the denomination £5 appears in bold script within an ornate guilloche panel, accompanied by the word FIVE set within an elaborate lathe-work rosette pattern. Numeral 5 repeats in the lower corners against a fine engine-turned underprint in blue throughout. |
