| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black and golden-ochre on cream paper within a double-ruled border. At top, a Fraktur script header reads 'Die Stadtsparkasse Schmiedeberg i. R.'; the central vignette presents a war memorial sculpture of two figures on a stone pedestal set against radiating sun rays. To the left, a rectangular panel carries the payment obligation text in Fraktur alongside a circular guilloche cartouche with the denomination '2 Mark'; to the right, a corresponding panel bears the place name and date fields above the circular city seal of Schmiedeberg. A serial number and 'Konto B' appear in the lower corners, with the printer's imprint 'Flemming - Wiskott - A.G. - Glogau' in the bottom margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a multicolour letterpress scheme of black, ochre, blue, and green on cream paper. The central vignette presents a detailed townscape view of the Marktplatz and Rathaus of Schmiedeberg as it appeared in 1820, with a church steeple visible in the background beneath a cloud-filled sky. Flanking the central scene are two narrow vertical panels, each on a black ground: the left panel shows a woman in traditional Silesian folk costume carrying a basket of produce, while the right panel depicts a uniformed figure; both panels carry '2 M' denomination cartouches in blue below the figures. The caption 'Schmiedeberg im Riesengebirge' appears at top in Fraktur, with 'Marktplatz u. Rathaus im Jahre 1820' at the base, and the registered design number 'D.R.G.M. 795679' in the lower margin. |
