The front side of the note features a portrait, while the reverse depicts a classical figure holding a wreath, with intricate geometric and floral designs. This note is identified as Pick 174 in catalogs and had a relatively large production volume of 2,200,000 pieces, which reflects post-war monetary expansions.
