Obverse description The note is entirely engraved in black on white paper and enclosed within an ornate chain-link border. At centre-top, the legend LIBERTA E GVAGLIANZA and REPUBBLICA ROMANA appear in letterpress; flanking these inscriptions are two circular vignettes — the left bearing a standing figure within the legend REPUBBLICA ROMANA, and the right a robed allegorical figure inscribed FEDE PVBLICA. A central eagle vignette with spread wings surmounts a framed cartouche reading P.li NOVE, flanked by the text 1. Dell'Anno 7. Repubblicano. Below, a multi-line typeset text identifies the note as an assegnato mortgaged on emphyteutic goods under Article X of Law 23, with a cursive line confirming its validity across all departments of the Roman Republic; a manuscript serial number and the handwritten signature of Pio Persiani appear at the foot.

Reverse description The plain white reverse carries sparse typeset and engraved text arranged symmetrically in the four corners, each pair reading PAOLI NOVE and NOVE PAOLI in alternation. At the centre, a small rectangular vignette encloses the numeral 9 flanked by architectural column motifs, with PAOLI above and NOVE below within the frame, serving as a denomination control mark.
