The lower grey band bears the redemption note and the denomination in bold Gothic lettering. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a striking two-colour silhouette composition: against a vivid red sky, the black skyline of Tarnowitz is rendered with multiple church towers and steeples of varying heights, creating a dramatic cityscape vignette. A grey underprint band at the base carries the denomination on both sides flanking the town name in Gothic script. The printer's imprint appears in small text at the lower right margin. |
