| Obverse description | Imperial double-headed eagle arms at upper centre, flanked by serial numbers on both sides. The note is a bearer bond obligation with extensive Cyrillic text in multiple registers, including the denomination in large letterpress script at centre reading 'ОБЛИГАЦІЯ ВЪ ПЯТЬСОТЪ РУБЛЕЙ НА ПРЕДЪЯВИТЕЛЯ'. The border consists of a fine engraved frame with repeating geometric ornamental motifs, and a manuscript signature with printed title appears at the lower portion. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely unprinted save for an intricate, all-over guilloche underprint of interlocking geometric and floral rosette patterns covering the full surface, rendered in pale grey-green ink. A large central medallion of dense lathe-work guilloche is surrounded by a repeating trellis of smaller ornamental units extending to the sheet margins. No text or vignette is present; the design serves purely as an anti-counterfeiting security underprint. |
