| Obverse description | The obverse is printed on a pink guilloche underprint with an olive-green outer border. To the left, a vignette of the Pritzwalk civic coat of arms — a crowned shield bearing a bear and foliate ornament — is flanked on the right by a cartouche in the form of a stylized sack or purse bearing the denomination '1.50 Mr.' in red. A silhouette of the Pritzwalk town skyline with church spires and factory chimneys runs across the lower centre, above which appear the date 'Pritzwalk, den 25. Febr. 1922' and a facsimile signature of the Magistrat. The issuing authority's name and the promise-to-pay legend are set in Gothic blackletter script. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a large woodcut-style vignette in dark brown on a cream ground, enclosed within a double-rule frame. The scene, drawn in a late-medieval or early Renaissance graphic style, shows a woman standing before a large arched brick oven in which a man's head is visible — an illustration referencing a local legend or folk tale. Above and below the central vignette, a Gothic blackletter inscription in two lines completes the narrative text across the note. |
