Obverse description Printed in blue-black and red on plain paper, the note is framed by an intricate guilloche border with floral and lace-like patterning. The denomination '1/2 KORONY' appears in large red letterpress text at centre, flanked by red '1/2' cartouches at left and right, while the central lower vignette shows the Kraków city coat of arms — a white eagle within a gateway — printed in red and dark blue. Two manuscript signatures in red ink appear below the vignette, attributed to the President of the City and the Director of the Main Treasury, with the serial number and legislative reference printed at foot.

Reverse description Identical in layout and colour scheme to the obverse, printed in blue-black and red with the same dense guilloche and floral border underprint. The central vignette again shows the Kraków eagle-in-gateway coat of arms in red and dark blue, surrounded by the same Polish-language redemption text. A handwritten serial number in red appears at centre, with the legislative authority reference printed at foot; no manuscript signatures are present on this face.
