| Obverse description | The central vignette presents the National Museum of Beirut rendered in fine intaglio engraving against a light blue and yellow guilloche underprint with dominant green tones. An ancient Phoenician bull figurine appears in the upper right, with a standing warrior statue to the lower right, both flanking the museum facade framed by palm trees. Arabic inscriptions name the issuing bank at top, denomination panels occupy the lower left and bottom centre, and two signature fields with the date inscription appear at lower right. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large intaglio vignette of the ancient stone arch bridge over the Nahr al-Kalb (Dog River), set within a rocky mountain gorge with cypress trees at right, printed entirely in green on a light underprint. Ornate guilloche borders frame all four sides of the note. Denomination numerals and legends in both French and Arabic are arranged across the upper and lower margins. |
