Obverse description The obverse is printed in olive-green on an intricate guilloche underprint with ornamental corner rosettes and cross motifs. At centre, a vignette of two allegorical figures flanking a crowned double-headed eagle coat of arms is set within an elaborate scrollwork frame, with the large Cyrillic denomination numeral '5' appearing in the left and right margins. The header inscription in Cyrillic is set in a panel at the top, with the denomination legend 'ПЕТ ПЕРПЕРА' printed in bold letterpress across the centre field; the place and date of issue, 'Цетиње, 1. октобра 1912.', appear in the lower text panel along with printed signature lines.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in the same olive-green palette and is virtually identical in design to the obverse, with the same dense guilloche underprint, ornamental cross-and-rosette border, and central allegorical vignette of two figures flanking the crowned double-headed eagle. The large numeral '5' appears in both side margins, and the bold Cyrillic denomination legend 'ПЕТ ПЕРПЕРА' runs across the centre; the top header and lower text panel with date and signature lines are reproduced in the same letterpress arrangement as the face. Both sides bear two circular punch-cancellation holes in the left and right fields, consistent with cancelled or specimen examples.
