| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large ornate numeral '5' rendered in a decorative script style at centre, set within an octagonal guilloche border with acanthus-leaf corner ornaments in blue and cream tones. A two-line Cyrillic text block below the numeral states the note's legal tender obligation for all government and private transactions, with a further warning against counterfeiting at the lower centre. |
