| Obverse description | The obverse is dominated by the state emblem of the RSFSR at centre, surrounded by an intricate guilloche underprint. Denomination numerals and the full text of the legal tender declaration are arranged around the central vignette, with signature lines for the People's Commissar of Finance and the Cashier printed at the lower portion. The overall design is executed in a two-colour letterpress style typical of early Soviet currency reform issues. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in red on cream paper, with a symmetrical guilloche framework divided into four corner panels, each carrying large denomination numerals '100' above the Cyrillic word 'РУБЛЕЙ'. A central cartouche of foliate ornamental design encloses the redenomination notice in Cyrillic text, with the date '1922' below it. The anti-counterfeiting warning appears at the foot of the central cartouche, and the borders are filled with continuous interlaced scrollwork and stylised floral motifs. |
