Vorderseitenbeschreibung Printed in red on white paper with a fibre-embedded stock, the note is framed by a decorative geometric border of interlocking diamond and square motifs. A left-hand panel, separated by the border, carries the denomination numeral '1' in large red letterpress between 'KRONE' above and 'КОРОНА' below, together with the series designation 'Serie D' and a serial number. The main field bears the Imperial Austrian coat of arms at centre-top flanked by the issuing authority and location, above the large-lettered voucher legend 'GUTSCHEIN FÜR EINE KRONE', followed by the validity and deposit clauses in smaller text, and the printed facsimile signatures of the camp administrative officer and commandant at foot.

Anmerkungen

Brunn am Gebirge, south of Vienna, hosted one of the Austro-Hungarian Empire's industrial prisoner-of-war camps — the "Gewerbelager" designation distinguishing it as a labor camp where prisoners worked in workshops and small trades rather than sitting idle. Camp scrip of this type was a practical administrative tool: it kept prisoner earnings from entering the general Austrian money supply and limited purchasing power to the camp canteen, reducing theft and black-market leakage.

The two signatories are unusually legible for this class of note. Oberleutnant Puskás as administrative officer and Oberst Popletsan as camp commandant both signed by hand — individual authentication on camp currency is not universal across the k.u.k. system, and it narrows the issue to a specific command window.
