Obverse description Light green guilloche underprint covers the central field, over which two crossed flagstaffs bear the French tricolour and the British Union Jack, joined at the intersection by a laurel wreath tied with a ribbon. Four heraldic shields occupy the corners — the Danish Dannebrog cross (upper left), the Imperial German quartered shield (upper right), the Swedish yellow cross on blue (lower left), and the Norwegian red-and-white cross on blue (lower right) — flanking the large denomination numerals '1 MARK' at left and right. A decorative banner scroll at the top carries the issuer's name, below which a serial-number cartouche is printed, and the date 'BROAGER, d. 10. FEBR. 1920' and the manuscript signature of the Kommuneforstander appear at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in full colour with a panoramic vignette set within a leafy green border punctuated at each corner by a red-and-white Danish roundel. At centre, a large Danish Dannebrog banner on a lance radiates bold red sunrays across a sky-blue ground; two rampant orange lions support the banner from below, recalling the Danish royal arms. To the left rises the twin-spired silhouette of Broager Church against a pastoral landscape, while to the right a coastal chalk-cliff scene with water and trees completes the composition. Arching around the central motif in bold letterpress is the patriotic Danish motto regarding reunification with Denmark.
