The bank title 'Narodowy Bank Polski' appears in large serif lettering at upper centre, with the denomination '1000' printed in multicolour at left and vertically along the left margin reading 'TYSIĄC ZŁOTYCH'. The Polish state arms — a white eagle on red ground — are rendered in an orange circular cartouche at upper right, accompanied by two manuscript signatures above the date inscription 'WARSZAWA 29 PAŹDZIERNIKA 1965 ROKU'.
