| Obverse description | The obverse is divided into three vertical panels: the left and right panels carry the denomination numeral '2' above the cursive 'M' on a golden-yellow ground, while the central panel bears a central vignette of a bare-branched tree rising from the municipal coat of arms — a shield with a millstone motif on a yellow-ochre field flanked by vertical line guilloche bands. The lower-left panel contains the validity clause in Gothic script, the lower-right panel the place-name and issue date in cursive hand, and the bottom register carries the town name 'Klodnitz-Oderhafen' in large Gothic lettering across a blue-grey underprint. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries the town name 'Klodnitz-Oderhafen' in bold Gothic blackletter across a pale-blue header panel, with the denomination '2 M' in yellow-gold blocks flanking a central vignette. The vignette portrays an industrial or port scene — low buildings with a tower amid billowing smoke and a large spread-winged eagle swooping dramatically overhead — rendered in fine line engraving on a cream ground. Below the vignette, a commemorative inscription references the Upper Silesian plebiscite of 20 March 1921, while the lateral borders carry a red herringbone-pattern underprint. |
