| Opschrift voorzijde | ПЯТЬСОТЪ ТИНГОВЪ پانصد تنگه |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse, likewise printed on cotton fabric in olive-green and orange-red tones, presents a central circular medallion with multi-line Arabic calligraphic text, flanked by smaller cartouches at the corners bearing additional inscriptions. The numeral 500 appears to the left of the central medallion, and the Cyrillic legend ПЯТЬСОТЪ ТИНГОВЪ runs along the lower portion of the design. Decorative geometric and floral underprint elements fill the background, consistent with the hand-stamped production methods typical of Bukharan emission notes of this period. |

The Bukhara Emirate's fabric notes of 1918 are among the more unusual monetary objects produced anywhere during the collapse of the old Central Asian order. Printed on locally woven cotton rather than imported paper stock, the series reflects both a practical response to wartime supply disruption and the emirate's geographical isolation from reliable printing sources as the Russian Civil War closed off normal channels.
Emir Alim Khan issued these as his administration was running out of options. Soviet forces took Bukhara in September 1920, ending the emirate entirely. Most of these notes were likely removed from circulation quickly and survive in relatively limited numbers.
