Beschrijving voorzijde	Printed in black and purple on plain paper within an elaborate guilloche border, the note incorporates ornamental corner pieces with numeral "5" devices and foliate scroll-work, with the royal arms vignette at upper centre flanked by the issuer's title in bold letterpress. A large red-purple open-lettered "FIVE" underprint spans the centre field, overlaid by the promise-to-pay text, issue date, and two pairs of serial numbers. Multilingual inscriptions appear in Chinese script along the upper panel and in Jawi (Arabic-script Malay) and Tamil along the lower panel, reflecting the colony's linguistic diversity.

Beschrijving keerzijde	Printed entirely in black on plain paper, the reverse is dominated by a large intaglio vignette of a tiger walking to the left, set within an oval frame surrounded by dense engine-turned guilloche work and floral lathe patterns. Symmetrical rosette medallions occupy the left and right fields, while sinuous ornamental devices anchor the four corners of the central oval surround. The composition is entirely without text, the intricate engine-turned decoration filling the note to its borders.
