| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is set within a dense geometric guilloche border of interlocking meander patterns printed in olive-brown. A large central rectangular cartouche carries Arabic script text in black ink against a red letterpress underprint of repeating geometric motifs. Circular vignettes with Arabic numerals "1000" appear in the lower corners, and a crescent-and-star device is positioned at the top centre above the main cartouche. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a wave-pattern guilloche underprint across the entire field in ochre-brown, with three ornate cartouches arranged centrally — a larger upper cartouche in green ink bearing Arabic script and two flanking cartouches in red and black at mid-field. The Hijri date "١٣٣٨" (1338) appears twice in the lower portion, and a typeset Cyrillic inscription at the bottom centre reads the denomination in Russian. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Emirate of Bukhara's paper currency was essentially a rearguard action. Emir Alim Khan had issued tengas since 1918 as Russian imperial authority collapsed, but by 1920 the Red Army was at the gates. This note was printed while Bukhara was still nominally independent — the Bolshevik assault came in September 1920, and the emirate fell within days. Notes from this final period circulated only briefly before the Bukharan People's Soviet Republic invalidated them.
The tenge denominations of this collapse-era series are among the last paper emissions of any Central Asian emirate.
