| Obverse description | Printed in blue-green on a salmon-pink guilloche underprint, the obverse is enclosed by an ornate letterpress border with large stylised 'R' monograms at each corner. A central oval cartouche bears the issuer's name and deliberation date above the bold denomination 'UN FRANC' flanked by 'XXX' ornaments, with a caduceus vignette at the apex; below, a circular 'MM' monogram medallion in red-orange overprint separates the manuscript signature lines for the Trésorier and the Président, with the convertibility clause and a decorative serial number tablet at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse repeats the blue-green letterpress border with large 'R' corner monograms on a salmon-pink guilloche underprint. Within the central oval cartouche, the heading 'DÉPARTEMENT DES LANDES' surmounts a grouped vignette of three heraldic shields — respectively bearing fleurs-de-lis with the legend 'CAPUT VASCONIAE', crossed keys, and a rampant lion with the legend 'ACOS' — each surmounted by a mural crown and underscored by a crossed oak-and-olive branch wreath; a red-orange '1F' overprint appears across the centre of the cartouche, with the redemption deadline clause in letterpress below. |
