Obverse description	The obverse is printed in dark blue-green tones with an elaborate guilloche border framing the central field. The denomination "VIISTUHAT MARKA" appears in large serif letters across the centre, flanked by numerals "5000" at each corner, with interlaced rosette vignettes at left and right. A panel at lower centre carries the bank's statutory text in Estonian, while the serial number appears at lower left; the illustrated example bears a diagonal red "PROOV" (Proof) overprint and cancellation punch holes.

The numerals "5000" appear to either side of the central vignette, and the year "1923" is printed in two positions flanking a row of decorative dots below the oval. The illustrated example carries a diagonal red "PROOV" (Proof) overprint and cancellation punch holes.
