| Obverse description | The central vignette presents the municipal coat of arms of Baku — a shield charged with three flame devices and flanked by oak branches — printed in dark ink over an orange-brown textured ground. Large denomination numerals '50' occupy ornate star-shaped cartouches at left and right of the arms. Two facsimile manuscript signatures below the vignette identify the City Head and a Member of the Board. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is composed entirely as a typographic text panel within a decorative border incorporating floral corner ornaments and a repeating chain motif along the upper edge. The bold central numeral '50' is flanked on each side by the Cyrillic abbreviation 'КОП.', all printed on the same plain orange-brown paper ground. Legal tender and anti-counterfeiting declarations are set in two lines above and one line below the denomination figure. |
