The hand-engraved portrait of the writer Ivan Cankar is the main motif on the front of the banknote. The profile silhouette filled by the writer´s handwriting completes the image. In the central part of the banknote, the stage plan of the former Theatre of Ljubljana is represented, with a chrysanthemum made in the technique of embossing above it. The watermark bears Smrekar´s caricature of Ivan Cankar. The left side of the banknotes is stamped with “Banka Slovenije 1991-2001” in gold.
