| Obverse description | Dark green letterpress vignette on cream paper, with an Art Nouveau-style decorative border framing a panoramic landscape of the Gosau valley: a broad alpine scene with jagged mountain peaks in the background, a village with a domed church and scattered farmhouses in the middle ground, and wooded slopes in the foreground. The denomination numeral '20' appears at lower left and lower right, flanking the central inscription 'GEMEINDE GOSAU', with the word 'HELLER' printed in smaller lettering between the numerals and the issuer name. The legend 'NOTGELD' is inscribed along the upper border. |

| Reverse lettering | »Ös Notgeld geb'n ma aussa zum Wechseln lass'n, Jetzt hat 's Kupfer und 's Eisen guat lieg'n im Kast'n. Wenn uns 's Glück nit verlasst, dann kann ja leicht sein, Wan ma Goldadern find'n, lös'n mir's ein unsere Schein. Zur Behebung der herrschenden Hartgeldnot gibt die Gemeinde Gosau auf Grund des Gemeindeausschußbeschlusses vom 8. Mai 1920 Gutscheine bis zu einem Betrage von 50.000 Kronen aus, und hinterlegt gleichzeitig diesen Betrag als Deckung. Das Ende der Gültigkeitsdauer wird seinerzeit öffentlich verlautbart. Nachahmung wird bestraft. Der Bürgermeister: Josef Posch. |
