| Obverse description | Blue intaglio printing over a blue guilloche underprint on this note, popularly known as the 'Battleship Note.' Allegorical vignettes of Mercury and Ceres are positioned above renditions of the Reichsadler (Imperial Eagle) at the upper portion of the main bordered pane, while the central rectangle displays the denomination within an underprint of the Imperial crown, staff, and sword with radiating rays. Vertical green serial numbers flank both sides of the main pane, with the green Reichsbank Directorate seals at the lower center and anti-counterfeiting warnings at the lower corners; a watermark pane occupies the left margin. |

| Reverse description | Dark blue intaglio printing over a fine-dot guilloche underprint creates a graduated tonal effect across the main bordered pane, which is lighter at the left-side watermark pane. The central vignette shows Germania seated beneath an oak tree, holding a shield and sword, with agricultural, industrial, and medical implements — a plow, anvil, and caduceus staff — arranged beside her. Ships of the Imperial fleet are depicted at left, while green serial numbers appear at the upper and lower center of the main pane and at the base of the watermark pane. |
