| Obverse description | The central vignette presents allegorical female figures at left and right flanking the denomination text, each accompanied by a child figure at their feet; the left figure holds a tablet while the right holds a torch and vessel. The central panel bears the date and three manuscript signatures above a caduceus ornament, with the large numeral "1000" in the lower centre. Arabic text runs along the lower border above a penal code warning, with serial numbers and series letters appearing in each corner. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a large intaglio vignette of two seated female figures in an allegorical composition: at left, a classically draped woman holding a lance rests amid a coastal landscape, while at right a veiled woman in North African dress sits with a rolled document, with desert vegetation in the background. The denomination "1000" appears in the upper left corner, and Arabic script lettering occupies both upper corners within a fine guilloche border frame. |
