| Obverse description | Printed in red with yellow and green guilloche underprint. The state coat of arms is centred, flanked by the denomination value rendered in both numeral and text form within an ornate vignette. The overall layout is compact and typographic in character, consistent with the emergency small-format treasury note series of 1917. |
