| 表面の説明 | The obverse is framed by a red decorative border with floral and scroll motifs, with the denomination numeral in Tibetan script in the upper corners. A large red circular seal occupies the left field, while the central vignette presents two mythical snow lions flanking a central motif, rendered in blue-black letterpress. A rectangular panel with a geometric key-fret design appears to the right. Two horizontal bands of Tibetan script inscriptions run above and below the central vignette, with a handwritten signature in ink below the lower band. |

| 裏面の説明 | The reverse is printed entirely in red ink with a dense, all-over woodblock-printed design. A central vignette displays the Tibetan royal emblem — a ceremonial vase surmounted by an umbrella and flanked by lotus scrollwork — set within a circular medallion, all surrounded by elaborate interlocking dragon and cloud scroll patterns that fill the entire field to the border. |

Tibet's currency office in Lhasa produced these notes on hand-made lokta paper, a traditional Himalayan bark paper that gives surviving examples a distinctly fibrous, uneven texture quite unlike anything from European or American security printers. The printing was done with carved woodblocks, a technique that produces characteristic ink variation and slight registration inconsistencies across the run — not errors, but artifacts of the method.
The 5 Srang was introduced as Chinese Nationalist pressure on Tibetan administrative autonomy intensified, and the government's insistence on maintaining its own currency was a deliberate act of institutional self-assertion. Tibet had no central bank in any formal sense; monetary functions were administered through the Tsikhang, the finance office of the Ganden Phodrang government.
Lokta paper absorbs moisture readily, which is why Tibetan notes from this period frequently show tide lines and foxing even in otherwise unhandled condition.
