| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Central vignette in woodcut style printed in rose-red and dark brown shows a standing female figure of charity distributing roses to two kneeling supplicants, set within an arched architectural surround with radiating lines. Vertical side panels carry Gothic script verses in black on a rose ground, flanking the central image. Below the vignette a bold black panel bears the denomination EINE MARK in white letterpress lettering flanked by six-pointed stars, while the lower portion carries the issue date, place of issue, a city arms vignette of two fish encircling a seven-pointed star, and two facsimile manuscript signatures of the Magistrat. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse, printed in the same rose-red and dark brown woodcut technique, is divided into two horizontal registers each containing a detailed architectural vignette: the upper register shows the medieval Romanesque church of Weißensee as it stood in the time of Saint Elisabeth circa 1220, while the lower register presents Schloss Weißensee in its present-day condition. A central text panel in Gothic script carries a verse referencing the Wartburg, flanked by a rose vignette at left and the city fish-and-star arms at right. Vertical border panels bear identifying Gothic script legends, and the printer's imprint of Alfred Hanf, Erfurt appears along the lower margin. |

Weißensee is a small Thuringian town — population under three thousand at the time — and its decision to issue notgeld in 1921 reflects just how far down the administrative hierarchy Germany's inflationary emergency had reached by that point. Municipal cardboard issues were commonplace, but having two separate printers named for a single local series is less typical; Alfred Hanf in Erfurt and C. G. Naumann in Leipzig presumably handled different values or printings within the set.
Cardboard notgeld from small Thuringian municipalities survives in widely varying condition. The material warps and corners crush easily, and many pieces were saved by collectors rather than ever changing hands in commerce.
