| Obverse description | Four allegorical rural vignettes frame the note: at upper and lower left, peasant women engaged in harvest and childcare activities; at upper and lower right, similar figures in agricultural settings. A central oval intaglio vignette encloses two standing peasant women carrying farm tools, surrounded by a laurel wreath underprint. The large denomination legend 'UNA MIE LEI' appears in bold letterpress across the upper centre, with the bank title 'BANCA NAȚIONALĂ A ROMÂNIEI' at top, and signature lines for the Governor and Chief Cashier flanking the central vignette. |

| Reverse description | Two peasant women stand at left, each carrying agricultural tools over their shoulders, rendered in a multicolour pictorial vignette after Grigorescu. At right, a single female figure ascends a ladder leaning against a fruit-laden tree. A large blank circular guilloche panel occupies the centre, reserved for the watermark, all enclosed within an elaborate ornamental border with denomination numerals '1000' in each corner. |
