| Obverse description | Austro-Hungarian Bank 20 Korona note dated 2 January 1907 (Vienna), overstamped with a red oval handstamp reading 'MAGYARORSZÁG' to validate it for Hungarian circulation. The face retains the original design of the Austria-Hungary P-10 issue: a large central guilloche oval at left, a portrait vignette of a young woman in an ornate frame at right, and the denomination 'HÚSZ KORONA' in bold lettering at centre, with three manuscript signatures of the Osztrák-Magyar Bank along the lower margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse of the underlying Austro-Hungarian 20 Kronen note dated Wien 2 Jänner 1907, with the denomination 'ZWANZIG KRONEN' in large central lettering within a decorative guilloche surround. A portrait vignette of a young woman in an oval frame appears at right, mirroring the obverse composition, while the left panel carries an ornate heraldic vignette with the double-headed eagle motif. The denomination is rendered in multiple languages around the border panels, reflecting the multilingual character of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. |
