| Obverse description | The note is divided into three vertical panels in brown and blue on a cream ground. The central panel bears a vignette of a standing female figure — the so-called Taubengustel, the emblem of Lähn — surrounded by doves in flight, framed by a rectangular border. Flanking panels each carry the denomination numeral "1,50 Mk" within a blue octagonal guilloche cartouche, with scrolled ribbon banners below reading "DIE TAUBENGUSTEL, DAS" (left) and "WAHRZEICHEN VON LÄHN" (right). The lower portion carries the issuing authority text in Gothic script, the full denomination spelled out "EINE MARK UND FÜNFZIG PFENNIG", a serial number, and the place-name "Lähn i. Riesengebg.", with the printer's imprint "FLEMMING-WISKOTT A.-G. GLOGAU" at the very foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in brown and teal on cream paper. A narrow panoramic silhouette frieze at the top centre shows figures in regional folk costume strolling among trees, flanked by the denomination "1.50" in large teal numerals at both upper corners. The main field is occupied by a detailed bird's-eye townscape vignette of Lähn nestled in the Bober valley, framed by leafy branch borders at left and right. A decorative floral guilloche band beneath the vignette carries the caption in Gothic script "Lähn, die Perle des Bobertales.", with the registered design mark "D.R.G.M. 795679" printed below the outer border. |
