Obverse description The city coat of arms of Schneidemühl occupies the centre, rendered in red and black letterpress, with a leaping stag on a shaded field surmounted by a mural crown; the issuer's name appears in a header panel across the top. Denomination cartouches reading '1,50 M.' are placed in red roundels at the upper left and upper right, flanked by ornamental scroll borders. Text panels at centre-left and centre-right carry the redemption clause and the written denomination, with 'Konto J' and a serial number printed at lower left and lower right respectively.

Reverse description A central oval vignette presents a fine line-engraved view of a multi-storey townhouse in a winter snowstorm, identified as the lodging of Queen Luise during her flight in 1806; diagonal wind-driven snow lines fill the background of the vignette, lending a dramatic atmosphere. Red rose motifs in the Art Nouveau style occupy the upper corners, while denomination cartouches reading '1,50 M.' appear in red panels at lower left and lower right. A descriptive caption panel runs below the vignette, and the registration number 'D.R.G.M. 795679' is printed in the bottom margin.
