Obverse description The left half of the note bears a colour vignette of a period figure in historical costume — a nobleman or town crier in a red cape, yellow breeches, and feathered hat — standing beside a cylindrical drum, flanked by decorative finials on either side. The right half is printed on a solid yellow ground and carries the denomination and issuing authority in bold red letterpress type. A faint guilloche underprint is visible within the yellow field.

Reverse description The reverse is printed on a cream ground and centred on a large oval yellow cartouche bearing the expiry notice and two manuscript signatures, framed by a decorative ribbon motif at the top. Flanking the cartouche symmetrically are two tall classical urns in yellow, each surmounted by a colourful arrangement of fruit and foliage in red and gold. A serial number in red appears in a ruled panel below the cartouche, and the printer's imprint runs along the lower margin.
