| Obverse description | Central design features a rotated square (diamond-orientation) frame enclosing the denomination numeral '2' above the inscription 'MARK' and a crossed-tools or floral ornament below, all in raised relief. The circumferential legend 'BAD WEIXDORF-LAUSA' curves around the upper portion of the field, while the date '1921' is positioned along the lower arc. The coin is bordered by a continuous beaded rim. The overall design is austere and typographic, characteristic of Weimar-era German porcelain notgeld issues. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a nude or semi-draped female figure rendered in low relief, shown frontally from the waist upward, rising from stylized waves at the lower field, evoking a water nymph or bathing goddess — an allusion to the spa character of Bad Weixdorf-Lausa. Her arms are outstretched to either side, and diagonal lines suggesting water jets or rays flank her upper body. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse, and the field is otherwise unlettered, allowing the allegorical figural design to dominate. |
