Obverse description At centre, an intaglio portrait vignette of Bübüsara Beyshenalieva (1926–1973), prima ballerina and a founding figure of Kyrgyz classical ballet, set against a multicolour guilloche underprint. The bank title in Cyrillic script is positioned at upper left, with the denomination expressed in both numeral and word form flanking the portrait on either side. The overall palette is warm, with tonal guilloche rosettes reinforcing the security underprint.

Reverse description A blue intaglio vignette of the Kyrgyz State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre in Bishkek occupies the centre, its classical colonnade and pediment rendered with fine architectural detail amid flanking trees, set over a pale rose guilloche underprint. A large numeral '5' appears at the far right, accompanied by a decorative ornamental rosette at lower right. A vertical band of traditional Kyrgyz geometric pattern ornament runs along the left margin.
