Obverse description The left portion of the note bears the Coat of Arms of the House of Savoy, enclosed within an ornate decorative border that frames the entire rectangular note. The text is set in letterpress within the ruled frame, with manuscript annotations and official handwritten signatures applied by designated treasury officers. The overall layout reflects early 18th-century Italian fiscal document conventions, with the denomination and issuing authority rendered in period typography.

Reverse description The reverse is plain cream-coloured paper, largely unprinted, with a show-through of the obverse letterpress text visible in mirror image. A manuscript ink stroke is present across the upper portion, consistent with a cancellation or handling mark. The surface exhibits the typical hand-cut uneven edges of early 18th-century fiscal paper.
