Obverse description	The central vignette presents an intaglio-engraved view of the Ministry of Finance building in Jeddah, rendered in fine line work over a violet guilloche underprint, with Arabic inscriptions of the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency along the upper border and the promise-to-pay clause with denomination "Riyal Wahid" below. An ornate rosette cartouche occupies the left field, flanked by the serial number repeated twice in the margins. Signature lines for the Minister of Finance and the Governor appear at the foot of the note.

Reverse description	Printed in violet on a light pink guilloche ground, the reverse is organised into three distinct panels: the left panel carries an elaborate geometric star-pattern medallion rooted in Islamic architectural ornamentation; the central panel, framed by a Moorish arch with foliate scrollwork and flanked by twisted column motifs, bears the Saudi Arabian emblem of two crossed scimitars beneath a date palm; and the right panel presents an octagonal guilloche cartouche serving as a watermark window. The English inscription "SAUDI ARABIAN MONETARY AGENCY" runs along the upper border, with "ONE RIYAL" at the foot.
