| Obverse description | Intricate arabesque border in red and green frames the entire note, with a central guilloche underprint in pale tones. Arabic text occupies the central field, giving the denomination as fifty livres, with the issuing bank name and date of 15 August 1925 inscribed in Arabic script. Two numeral counters reading '50' appear at lower left and lower right within octagonal cartouches, and the designer and engraver credits appear in the lower margin. |

| Reverse description | A large central vignette rendered in intaglio presents a view of an oriental domed building — identifiable as the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem — set within an arched architectural frame with decorative tilework, flanked by cypress trees and open courtyard. The denomination '50' appears in all four corners against an orange geometric border with interlacing latticework. The bank name and denomination title are inscribed across the upper portion in French. |
