Obverse description Green and pink note with an ornate arabesque border enclosing the entire design. The central field carries multi-line Ottoman calligraphic script in a decorative panel, with the denomination numeral "1" in oval cartouches at left and right. A guilloche rosette underprint in pale pink occupies the centre, flanked by floral vignettes, and the serial number appears twice in the lower portion of the design.

Reverse description Entirely in green, the reverse presents a large lobed central cartouche filled with multiple lines of Ottoman calligraphic text stating the note's legal tender conditions and obligations of the Ottoman Public Debt Administration. The cartouche is surrounded by interlocking guilloche rosette patterns that fill the field to the ornamental border, and a single handwritten signature appears below the text panel.
