A portrait of Jan Pieterszoon Coen, rendered with a ruffed collar in the classical engraved tradition, occupies the right portion of the note. Issuer and denomination inscriptions are set in formal letterpress typography across the face. |

Executed in blue-green and brown, the reverse carries an anti-counterfeiting legal warning rendered in four languages — Dutch, Javanese (in Javanese script), Chinese, and Malay (in Jawi script) — arranged in distinct text blocks across the face. The multilingual layout reflects the diverse linguistic communities of the Netherlands Indies and references Articles 244, 245, and 249 of the Criminal Code. The composition is typographic in character, with no pictorial vignettes. |
