The obverse of the banknote features a multicolored frame with underprint, displaying the denomination and extensive inscriptions, along with control numbers and two stamps separated by four signatures. The reverse side is blank. Measuring 195 x 84 mm, the note was printed by the Reichsdruckerei and was demonetized on July 5, 1925.
