| Obverse description | Green and cream Notgeld note with a central circular vignette of the Rudolstadt civic lion rampant, crowned, set within a guilloche medallion. The title inscription 'Notgeld Rudolstadt' curves in bold Gothic blackletter across the upper field, flanked by two smaller vignettes of church bells in the upper corners; the denomination '100 Pfennig' appears in the lower left and right corners above a decorative foliate underprint. A secondary text band reads 'Schiller-Stätten' in Gothic script, with a dated authority text at lower left referencing the Stadtrat Rudolstadt, 16. August 1921, and a Bürgermeister signature facsimile at lower right. |

| Reverse description | The central vignette presents a large swinging church bell in its timber belfry frame, rendered in a detailed woodcut-style illustration in dark brown and olive tones against a muted landscape background. Decorative Art Nouveau side panels in green and cream with stylised foliate scrollwork frame the composition on left and right, each bearing a circular '100 Pfs' denomination roundel at top. A text cartouche at the base carries a verse in Gothic script referencing the bell and the city's peace. |
