| Obverse description | The face is printed on a wave-pattern guilloche underprint in ochre-brown tones, with three cartouches arranged across the central field bearing Arabic-script inscriptions; the two flanking cartouches are set in red oval frames while the central one is rendered in green. The serial number appears twice in the lower portion of the field in black ink, and a rectangular panel at the foot carries the Cyrillic denomination legend. |

| Reverse description | The back is enclosed within a dense interlocking geometric meander border in olive-green, framing a large central rectangle filled with a repetitive red lattice underprint. Three lines of Arabic-script text in black occupy a central cartouche, with additional Arabic inscriptions at the corners, and a crescent-and-star motif is placed at the top centre above the border. The denomination numeral is repeated in the lower corners. |
