| Obverse description | Printed in green intaglio with black overprint, the obverse carries a central vignette of soldiers marching in formation. Chinese characters forming the bank name and exchange clause are arranged around the vignette. The overall design is executed in a simple letterpress style characteristic of wartime Soviet-area issues. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in purple ink and carries a centrally placed hammer and sickle emblem as the primary design element. Surrounding inscriptions in Chinese characters give the bank name, denomination, and date. The design is plain and utilitarian, consistent with the austere production standards of the Chinese Soviet Republic's field-issued currency. |
