| Obverse description | Plain emergency-issue note of rudimentary typeset design on unadorned paper stock, bearing the denomination figure and payable-on-demand obligation text in letterpress. The central field carries multiple lines of printed text authorizing the issue by order of the Commanding Officer, 2nd Battalion, 64th Infantry, dated February 1943. The overall layout is sparse, consistent with wartime guerrilla currency produced under field conditions in the Aklan region of the Philippines. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely unprinted, presenting a plain expanse of aged, heavily worn paper with visible foxing, staining, and crease lines accumulated over decades. No text, vignette, or security feature appears on this side, which is characteristic of many Philippine guerrilla emergency currency issues of the Japanese Occupation period. |
