Obverse description The coat of arms of the Republic of Armenia occupies the central field, depicting a double-headed eagle supporting a quartered shield, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. The denomination '1000' appears below the arms in large numerals, with the word 'ԴՐԱՄ' (Dram) inscribed beneath. A circular Armenian-script legend runs along the inner border, reading 'ՀԱՅԱՍՏԱՆԻ ՀԱՆՐԱՊԵՏՈՒԹՅԱՆ ԿԵՆՏՐՈՆԱԿԱՆ ԲԱՆԿ' (Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia) with the date '2007'. The entire design is framed by an ornate outer border composed of alternating grapevine leaves and clusters of grapes arranged in a continuous decorative ring.

Reverse description A large, naturalistically rendered bunch of grapes dominates the left and lower field, depicted in high relief with individually detailed berries and elegant draping clusters. To the upper right, two broad grapevine leaves are shown with finely engraved veining against the mirror-polished field. A rectangular panel in the centre-right field carries a two-line inscription in Armenian script identifying the grape variety, reading 'ՀԱՅԿԱԿԱՆ ԽԱՂՈՂ' (Armenian Grape). The overall composition celebrates Armenia's ancient viticulture tradition in a bold, botanically detailed style.
