| Obverse description | The face of the Austro-Hungarian 1 Korona note of 1916 (Hungary P-10) serves as the base, with the denomination inscribed in multiple languages within an ornate panel at left and the numeral '1' set within a finely engraved guilloche frame at right. A central oval vignette rests against an intricate underprint, flanked along the lower margin by bilingual anti-counterfeiting warnings in German and Hungarian. A handstamp overprint reading 'Città di Fiume' was applied over the Hungarian-language text, distinguishing this Fiume provisional issue from the unoverprinted base note. |

| Reverse description | The reverse of the underlying Hungary P-10 note presents two female allegorical heads in intaglio at left and right, framing a central vignette incorporating the rod of Aesculapius, all set against a finely engraved guilloche underprint. Bilingual text in German and Hungarian is integrated within the design field, consistent with standard Austro-Hungarian imperial banknote production of the period. |
