Obverse description Printed in dark purple on buff paper, the obverse centres on a large oval woodcut-style vignette enclosing two allegorical nude figures — a female at left and a male at right — flanking a cartouche bearing the denomination in Gothic blackletter script; the serial number is placed at upper right, with 'Gutschein' at upper left and the denomination restated in large Gothic characters along the right margin. A text panel beneath the vignette carries the payment clause, the issuing authority 'Reichsverkehrsministerium Zweigstelle Bayern', and the place-and-date line 'München, 26. Oktober 1923', followed by a manuscript signature. A penal warning clause against counterfeiting appears at the foot of the note in smaller typeface.

Reverse description The reverse is unprinted, consisting of plain buff paper entirely devoid of vignette, text, or ornamental elements, consistent with the expedient production methods characteristic of German hyperinflationary Notgeld issues of 1923. A handwritten ink notation appears diagonally across the centre, attributable to a later collector or administrative hand.
