| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed on coarse cotton fabric in red and black, the obverse is divided into a grid of cartouches and medallions filled with Arabic-script inscriptions, all set within an overall floral and geometric guilloche underprint in red. Three circular medallions occupy the upper register, while a central band contains four further inscription panels with the denomination repeated. A lower rectangular panel carries the legal text in Arabic script, flanked by two further circular medallions, with the value '100 P' displayed in a prominent panel at the foot of the note. |

| Opmerkingen |
Khorezm — the short-lived Soviet satellite carved out of the former Khanate of Khiva in 1920 — produced some of the most materially unusual emergency currency in Central Asian history. Fabric notes were not a novelty across the region at this moment, but Khorezm's cotton issues are among the few where the substrate was a deliberate local resource decision rather than a wartime paper shortage fix. The republic itself dissolved into the Soviet Union by 1924, and its currency with it.
Cotton fabric notes from this series survive poorly — the material absorbs handling damage differently than paper, and many examples have frayed edges or faded ink from damp storage conditions specific to the region's climate.
