Front: Two Cenderawasih (Birds of Paradise) flanking a large central oval space, set against ornate decorative scrollwork. The Cenderawasih is endemic to the Indonesian region of Papua and is a national symbol of Indonesia, featured on many Indonesian banknotes to represent the nation's rich biodiversity and cultural heritage. The birds are depicted in their characteristic crested and plumed appearance.

Back: General Sudirman (1916–1950), supreme commander of the Indonesian armed forces during the Indonesian National Revolution. He led guerrilla resistance against Dutch colonial forces during the Indonesian War of Independence (1945–1949) despite suffering from tuberculosis. Sudirman is one of Indonesia's most revered national heroes, honoured for his leadership, military strategy, and dedication to Indonesian independence. His portrait has appeared on multiple denominations of Indonesian currency.
