Obverse description Letterpress note in red-brown and black on plain paper, with a bold geometric underprint of interlocking diamond and lozenge forms filling the central field. The issuer's name 'STÄDTISCHE SPARKASSE' is set in large bold lettering across the top, with 'NEUMARKT IN SCHLESIEN' in heavy display type across the middle zone; the denomination 'EINHUNDERT PFENNIGE' in gothic lettering overlies the central underprint. Below, the issue date 'NEUMARKT, DEN 10. OKTOB. 1921' is followed by two manuscript signatures beneath the captions 'DER VERWALTUNGSRAT:' and 'STÄDT. SPARKASSE:', with a redemption clause along the lower margin and four decorative star devices at the corners.

Reverse description The reverse carries a full-width vignette in red-brown and black, rendered in early 19th-century illustrative style, showing a delegation of Breslau city councillors petitioning Napoleon during his stay in Neumarkt in 1813, seeking clemency for the city of Breslau. A thin ruled border frames the composition, with 'SERIE II' noted at the lower left. Below the vignette, a bold explanatory caption in gothic type identifies the historical scene.
