Obverse description Printed entirely in red on plain paper, the obverse carries a vigorous propagandist vignette of two workers — a female harvester at left and a male industrial worker at right — rendered in a bold letterpress style, with a five-pointed red star at the apex between them. The denomination numeral '1' appears in the upper corners flanked by the factory monogram 'FG', while a central banner below the vignette bears the issue text in two lines. Two handwritten signatures and a black-printed serial number appear in the lower portion, with the signatories' roles inscribed beneath in red letterpress.

Reverse description The reverse is printed entirely in red and centres on a large circular medallion enclosing a portrait bust of Karl Marx, rendered in a fine cross-hatched engraving style with radiating lines extending to the four corners of the note. The factory monogram 'FG' appears within decorative rosette cartouches at each corner, with the denomination numeral '1' in the lower-right and upper-left corner cartouches, and elaborate foliate border ornaments framing the entire design.
