| Obverse description | The upper left quadrant bears a small emblem, likely a simplified local device serving as an issuing authority seal. The central field carries the denomination and issuing authority's name in Cyrillic letterpress, executed in a plain, utilitarian style consistent with provincial emergency issues of the early Soviet period. |

The Administration of Economic Enterprises (Upravleniye Khozyaystvennykh Predpriyatiy) was a Soviet-era body issuing scrip-style notes for use within its own institutional economy — a practice common in early NEP-period Russia, when the central monetary system was too unstable and too slow to serve localized wage and transaction needs. These notes circulated internally, effectively as a parallel currency within a defined administrative scope, rather than in open commerce.
The Pick S-series designation signals its non-governmental, quasi-local status. Attribution of the precise issuing region remains uncertain in most references.
