Obverse description The obverse is printed entirely in deep carmine-red on a lighter guilloche underprint. The centre carries the large denomination numerals '1000' flanked by ornate lathe-work medallions at each corner, with the issuing authority legend at the top and the denomination in full lettering across the middle of the note. A central cartouche bears the legal tender and anti-counterfeiting warning text alongside the year date 1944, while serial numbers appear in two positions framing the central inscription.
