The front of the banknote shows the portrait of Andrej Hlinka (1864 – 1938), an outstanding personality of modern Slovak history, who played an important role in the national emancipation process and the political development of Slovakia.

The back of the banknote illustrates elements associated with his activities as a clergyman. The leitmotif of the design is the Madonna, the patron saint depicted in the medieval fresco found in the interior of the Roman Catholic Church in Sliace near Ruzomberok. The left part of the note displays the picture of the Roman Catholic Church of St. Andrew in Ruzomberok. The left part of the Madonna´s cloak contains the picture of Andrej Hlinka´s mausoleum.
