Beschrijving voorzijde Plain white paper with red letterpress printing throughout. A decorative border of diamond and square ornaments frames the note; a vertical left panel contains the denomination in German and Cyrillic (KRONE 1 / КОРОНА) above a serial number, with the series designation at upper left. The main field carries the Austro-Hungarian imperial coat of arms at centre top, flanked by the issuing authority and place name, above the large-type voucher legend GUTSCHEIN FÜR EINE KRONE. Two lines of smaller text below restrict validity to internal use at the prisoner-of-war commercial camp, followed by a clause identifying the voucher as a deposit share, and at foot the printed facsimile signatures of the administrative officer (Puskas) and camp commandant (Popletsan) with their titles.

Opmerkingen

Brunn am Gebirge, roughly fifteen kilometers south of Vienna, housed one of the Austro-Hungarian military's designated Gewerbelager — trade or craft camps — where prisoners of war with useful skills were segregated and put to work in organized workshops. The internal scrip issued there served the standard dual purpose of controlling purchasing power within the camp economy while ensuring that no Entente prisoner could accumulate Austrian currency with value beyond the wire.

The signatures are unusually legible for camp scrip of this type. Oberst Popletsan as Lagerkommandant and Oberleutnant Puskás as Verwaltungsoffizier — the administrative officer — both signed, which suggests the camp maintained more formal bureaucratic procedures than many comparable installations.
