| Beschrijving voorzijde | The right half of the note is occupied by a finely engraved intaglio vignette of a Black-bellied Grey Plover in flight, set against a watercolour-style underprint of a coastal landscape with a flock of birds in the distance. At centre-left, the bold intaglio numeral '1000' is flanked by a rose guilloche panel at upper-left bearing a decorative quatrefoil motif, with the textual denomination 'EITT TÚSUND KRÓNUR' inscribed below. A thick embedded security stripe runs vertically along the right margin. |

The 2011 upgrade to this denomination was driven by the Faroese decision to bring the 1000 króna note into line with revised European security standards — the thick thread variant replaced the earlier thin-thread version of essentially the same design, which had circulated since 2004. Zacharias Heinesen designed the underlying artwork, and the series is notable for being one of the few currency programs of a non-sovereign territory to commission original fine-art designs rather than repurposing existing iconography.
At just over 12 million printed by De La Rue, the run was substantial for a population of under 50,000 — most of this note's working life was in tourist-adjacent retail and inter-island commerce rather than everyday pocket use.
