The front of the banknote features an allegorical composition centered on the representation of Peace. This female figure, a symbol of harmony and prosperity, is highlighted by a careful graphic treatment. The background of the front is composed of complex ornamental motifs, typical of banknotes from that era, designed to make counterfeiting more difficult. The face value, "500 Francs," is written out in words and numbers, clearly and repeatedly, to avoid any confusion. Security features, such as guilloché patterns and a watermark, are incorporated to protect the banknote against counterfeiting.

The back of the banknote takes up and completes the theme of Peace, with motifs and symbols that evoke stability and renewal. The colors used on the back are complementary to those on the front, creating a visually harmonious whole. The face value is also present on the back, in a graphic style consistent with that of the front. The serial number of the banknote, here G.3349, is prominently printed, allowing for its unique identification. The quality of the paper used and the fineness of the printing contribute to the value and authenticity of the banknote.

This 500 Francs banknote is a testament to the monetary history of France and reflects the concerns and symbols of the era in which it was issued. Its careful design and security features make it a collectible item prized by numismatists.
