The modified banknote has the same dimensions and general design as the 5000-ruble banknote of 1997 issue.

The colour and graphical design of the front and back of the banknote has been partially changed.

On the front of the modified banknote in the lower part of the left unprinted area to the left of the main image there is a text „МОДИФИКАЦИЯ 2010 ГОДА” (2010 modification).

Banknotes of 2010 modification have the following main differences:

security fibres of two types are embedded in the paper (two-coloured and one-coloured grey ones);
a wide security thread is embedded in the paper. It comes out on a surface on the front of the banknote in the shape of a window;
there is a multitone & highlight watermark on the right unprinted area;
the coat-of-arms of the city of Khabarovsk is printed in optically variable magnetic ink (OVMI) with the effect of a moving bright glossy bar;
on the front of the banknote at the edges of unprinted areas there are fine relief line marks;
in the bottom part of a field with the latent coloured stripes there is an area with constantly visible coloured stripes (MVC+ effect);
the height of figures to the left of the serial number smoothly increases from the left to the right;
on the back of the banknote the multi-coloured ornamental stripe has been changed;
some elements of the image have magnetic properties;
under UV and IR light the banknote images differ in some aspects from the images of the banknotes of the previous issue.

On the front of the note there are two serial numbers that consist of two letters indicating the series followed by seven digits.

Microperforation

When the banknote is held up to the source of light, one can view the note denomination „5000” formed by absolutely straight parallel rows of holes perforated in the paper. The area of a banknote with the holes does not feel rough to the touch.

Multitone & highlight watermark

The watermark is located on the right unprinted area and consists of a multitone watermark (the portrait of N.N. Muravjov-Amursky) and an adjoining highlight watermark — the numeric value of the denomination (value numeral 5000). The highlight watermark has elements which are lighter than the background paper and multitone watermark. The numerals are shaded by dark lines and have the effect of volume.
