Obverse description Intaglio portrait of composer Eduardo Fabini at centre-right, with his name inscribed on a cartouche below; the Uruguayan coat of arms appears to the left above the watermark field, set against a multicolour guilloche underprint. Denomination is expressed in large letterpress numerals as N$1.000 at upper-right and lower corners, with the serial number printed twice in contrasting red and black. A diagonal overprint reading NO EMITIDO across the face confirms this note was prepared but never released into circulation.

Reverse description The left vignette presents an intaglio allegorical sculptural group representing musical art — a seated male figure in classical style holds pan pipes amid naturalistic rocky surrounds, captioned ALEGORIA MUSICAL below. To the right, a coloured vignette of a lyre wreathed in laurel branches serves as a secondary decorative emblem, above the denomination block MIL in large serif letterpress. The background is composed of fine multicolour guilloche work, with the printer's imprint THOMAS DE LA RUE AND COMPANY LIMITED appearing at lower right.
