| Obverse description | Pink and cream treasury obligation note dated 1 January 1920, in a plain letterpress format dominated by the bold central legend 'EESTI WABARIIGI 5% WÕLAKOHUSTUS' (Estonian Republic 5% Debt Obligation), with the denomination '200' in large bold numerals at each corner and the face value 'Mk. 200.—' stated at upper right. The text body is printed in Estonian, German, French, and Russian in narrow vertical columns along both lateral margins, detailing redemption terms. Three manuscript signature lines designated for the Prime Minister, Finance Minister, and Head of State Treasury appear in the lower central field above a serial number. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in pink and cream tones, relying solely on machine-engraved geometric guilloche underprint work for its decorative effect, with no pictorial vignettes. Two large circular rosette medallions positioned at left and right center each bear the numeral '200' in bold relief, enclosed within intricate lathe-work borders. Smaller ornamental roundels occupy each corner, completing the overall symmetrical geometric composition. |
