| Obverse description | The face is dominated by a central text block carrying the denomination inscription in both Czech and Slovak, set within an ornate scrolled guilloche border. The legends appear in bilingual parallel format, with the anti-counterfeiting warning rendered in both official languages beneath the date 1953. The overall layout is typographic in character, with no pictorial vignette, relying on the intricacy of the surrounding scrollwork for its decorative effect. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries the Czechoslovak state coat of arms centrally positioned, flanked symmetrically on either side by stylised ears of wheat. The numeral 5 appears in conjunction with the state title inscription, the whole composition framed within a plain border characteristic of the austerity-era design of this issue. |
