| Reverse description | Central vignette of water lilies (shapla) in full bloom with broad lily pads, executed in fine intaglio line work in rose-red on a light guilloche ground, with bamboo and reed plants at right alongside a decorative hanging ornament. The Bangladesh Bank seal is placed at upper centre, with denomination numerals set within guilloche cartouches at each corner. The overall composition is austere and botanical in character, consistent with the early post-independence Bangladeshi note design vocabulary. |
