| Obverse description | Printed in dark green on buff paper, the obverse centres on a circular vignette bearing a classical profile bust facing right, rendered in a style evoking ancient Roman coinage in reference to the town's antique name Caesarea. Crescent moon ornaments occupy the upper corners within a simple ruled border frame. The town name arcs across the upper field, the Latin subtitle curves along the lower arc of the vignette, and the face value appears in large numerals at the lower right. |

| Reverse description | The upper portion of the reverse carries a rectangular landscape vignette printed in dark green, showing a park or public garden scene with bare-branched trees and what appears to be an ancient column or monument in the background. Below, a ruled panel bears the mayoral authority inscription and a manuscript signature, with the designer's name and year of issue typeset at the lower left margin. |
