Obverse description Light blue-grey note with a decorative guilloche border running along all four edges. The central denomination UN FRANC is printed in large bold letterpress text, flanked on the left by a circular vignette with the emission approval text and on the right by a circular vignette noting the deliberation of the Chamber of Commerce dated 22 August 1914. Signature lines for Le Trésorier and Le Président appear in the lower portion, with two red wax seal impressions visible, and the redemption clause printed along the bottom margin.

Reverse description Plain light paper reverse with a central block of printed French text setting out the conditions of redemption, framed by a red rectangular border. Three red wax seal impressions are arranged horizontally across the note — one centrally positioned within the text block and one at each lateral margin. The layout is unadorned, relying solely on the legal text and seals.
