| Obverse description | The obverse carries the denomination numeral and bilingual inscriptions in Finnish and Swedish within a complex guilloche underprint. Ornate border panels frame the central vignette, with the issuing authority name rendered in formal letterpress typography. The overall design reflects the restrained Nordic classicism characteristic of early Finnish banknote engraving. |
