| Reverse description | The reverse carries a decorative collage devoted to Belarusian theatre and folk festival traditions, incorporating a violin, a tambourine, and a zhaleika woodwind instrument alongside the celebrated woven belts of Słutsk. Symbols of traditional folk festivals are interwoven throughout the composition, including the Kalyady star, a she-goat motif, and imagery evoking the Batlejka puppet theatre tradition. The denomination is rendered in bold numerals below the central design, with the Belarusian legend РУБЛЁЎ completing the value inscription. |

Belarus has printed its currency through Moscow's Goznak facility since the post-Soviet reintroduction of the ruble, an arrangement that carries obvious political weight given the two countries' Union State relationship. The 2022 dated series continued that dependency without interruption, even as Belarus was under heavy Western sanctions following the 2020 electoral crisis and Lukashenko's subsequent alignment with the Kremlin.
Nekrasova's design work sits within a broader Goznak house style — the security specification here is functional rather than exceptional, with colour-shifting ink and a security thread placing this note at a mid-range protection tier common to regional central bank issues of this period.
