| Obverse description | Printed in red-brown on cream card stock with a fine lozenge-pattern underprint border framing the entire note. The issuer's name 'Herzoglich Braunschweigische Sparkasse' appears in large Gothic script at the top, with the denomination '150 M.' in bold red numerals at upper left and right within rectangular cartouches. A central text block in letterpress identifies the instrument as a 'Spareinlage über einhundertfünfzig Mark', the denomination also written out in full in a bordered panel. Series, order number, and date fields appear in the lower portion, accompanied by two manuscript signatures — one to the left and one designated 'Der Sparpfleger' to the right — along with an oval official stamp and a blue overprint reading 'Unverzinsliches Kriegsnotgeld', dated Braunschweig, 1. November 1918. |

| Reverse description | Printed in blue-grey on the plain card reverse, the note carries a structured interest-rate table under the heading 'Zinsen auf 150 M Einlage', with columns for periods of one to twelve months calculated at 3%, 3½%, 3¾%, and 4% per annum. To the left, a ruled register panel headed 'Jahreszinsen sind gezahlt' provides space for recording annual interest payments with date, amount, and order number lines. A columnar extract of savings regulations in small Gothic text occupies the right margin, referencing the Herzogl. Leihhaus statutes of 10 June 1892. The note's top-right corner is cut away diagonally, indicating cancellation. |
