| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in black on plain paper, the note carries its full text in three languages — Swedish, Russian (Cyrillic), and Finnish — set in period blackletter and roman typefaces. A central oval stamp vignette bearing the numeral '75' in large figures is positioned in the upper centre of the face, surrounded by a dotted border. The serial number is handwritten in ink at the top, and two manuscript signatures appear in the lower right, with a handwritten date completing the Turku (Åbo) place-and-date line in the body text. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is essentially plain, showing only a simple rectangular black-ink stamp in the lower left quadrant enclosing the denomination '75 k' in bold numerals. The remainder of the surface is unprinted, with show-through of the obverse text visible due to the thin paper stock. |

The Wäxel-Låne- och Depositions-Contor was established in Turku (Åbo) in 1811, just two years after Finland's annexation by Russia. It was the first formally chartered credit institution on Finnish soil, and its notes — issued in kopeck denominations but printed with Swedish-language text — reflect the administrative awkwardness of a territory still running on Swedish institutional infrastructure while being folded into the Russian monetary system.
The 75-kopeck denomination is among the smallest the Contor issued, clearly aimed at facilitating everyday transactions in a region where metallic small change was chronically scarce. The institution was dissolved in 1816, making the window of issue extremely narrow.
