| Obverse description | Printed in blue and red on a yellow guilloche underprint, the obverse centres on a vignette of two lions at play with a ball, rendered in red against the golden ground. Tibetan script legends appear in two text panels above and below the central vignette, with the denomination noted in smaller cartouches at each corner. A circular red seal is applied at the lower left, and a square black seal cartouche appears at the right, both hand-stamped; a decorative blue border frames the entire composition. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed on yellow-toned lokta paper with an overall floral and auspicious-knot guilloche pattern in green, overlaid by four large rounded-rectangular vignettes in deep red, each containing a different sacred or auspicious creature — snow lion, dragon, tiger, and a stylized mythical beast — printed in blue-grey against the red ground. The four vignettes are arranged in a two-by-two grid, separated by narrow yellow interstices, and the whole is enclosed within a plain outer border. |
