| Obverse description | Printed on a yellow-orange ground, the obverse is centred on a large octagonal vignette enclosing the heraldic coat of arms of the City of Celle — a fortified tower gateway with a lion passant in the base, surmounted by a helm and elaborate foliate mantling in teal and black. Validity notices in decorative cartouches flank the arms on either side, and the bold Gothic-script title 'Gutschein der Stadt Celle' runs along the top margin. Below the central vignette appears the facsimile inscription 'Der Magistrat:' accompanied by two manuscript facsimile signatures. |

| Reverse description | Printed on a cream ground with a yellow-orange border, the reverse carries a bold Gothic-script header 'Celler Quartett' at the top and the denomination '100 Pfg' in large numerals at lower left and right. The central vignette is a detailed line-art illustration of Celle's Renaissance town hall (Rathaus), rendered in black with figures in the foreground streetscape. A text panel at lower centre lists the four public buildings of the Celler Quartett series, and the printer's imprint 'Eduard Binder, Celle' appears in small type at the very foot. |
