| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in dark olive-green and black on a buff ground, dominated by an elaborate guilloche underprint radiating from a central vignette of a mountainous landscape set within an ornate cartouche. The denomination numeral '20' appears in each of the four corners within decorative scroll frames, with rosette ornaments at the lateral midpoints. The legend 'REPUBLIKA ČESKOSLOVENSKÁ' arches across the upper portion in bold letterpress, while the value inscription 'DVACAŤ KORÚN' is rendered in large intaglio characters at centre, beneath the introductory clause 'TÁTO POUKÁZKA PLATÍ'; the Cyrillic equivalent 'ДВАДЦЯТЬ КРОН' is repeated twice in the lower field, and the date '1944' and anti-counterfeiting warning 'FALŠOVANIE SA TRESTÁ' appear at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in dark brown and grey on a plain buff ground, its entire surface occupied by a symmetrical guilloche composition of fine lathe-work. Three large denomination numerals '20' are arranged horizontally — one at left, one at right, and a larger ornate example at centre enclosed within a shield-shaped guilloche panel — all surrounded by interlocking geometric micropattern panels and rosette ornaments at the cardinal points. |
