Obverse description Octagonal zinc notgeld token with a plain, granular field. The large numeral '100' occupies the central area in bold raised relief. Surrounding the central numeral is a dotted inner border, with the circular legend 'RUDOLF NEUGEBAUER & C°' arcing across the upper portion and 'HAMBURG' across the lower portion, each separated by a raised dot serving as a stop. The overall design is utilitarian in character, reflecting the emergency coinage aesthetic of the World War I era.

Reverse description Octagonal zinc reverse featuring the large numeral '100' prominently displayed in the centre within a raised rope or twisted-cable inner border. The circular legend 'KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE' (meaning 'small change substitute token') runs around the outer field. Three six-pointed stars are evenly spaced along the lower portion of the legend, serving as decorative stops. The rim is plain with a granulated surface texture consistent with the wartime zinc striking.
