| Obverse description | Green letterpress Notgeld on cream paper, enclosed within an ornate border of fruit-laden branches — pears and apples — forming a rustic frame. The upper vignette presents three large storage barrels arranged side by side, flanked by fruit trees, with the year split '19 — 20' to either side. Below, the issuing authority inscription 'Gutschein der Gemeinde Abetzberg' appears in Gothic script, followed by the denomination 'Heller 20 Heller' in bold blackletter. Three facsimile signatures appear at the foot, beneath the roles 'Vice-Bürgerm.:', 'Bürgermeister:' and 'Gemeinderat:', with the printer's imprint 'C. QUEISER AMSTETTEN' in the lower right margin. |

| Reverse description | Green letterpress on cream paper, the central vignette illustrates two figures operating a traditional fruit press — a cider or juice press — surrounded by sheaves of wheat at either side, rendered in a folk-art woodcut style. Below the vignette, a four-line verse in Gothic script reads a regional adage about pear and apple juice. Flanking panels carry the denomination '20' at upper left and right, validity text 'Gültig bis 31.12.1920' vertically at right, a counterfeiting prohibition 'Nachahmung verboten' vertically at left, and two text panels at lower left and right detailing the municipality's redemption liability and the personal presentation requirement. The issuer name 'Gemeinde-Abetzberg' appears in bold blackletter across the lower register. |
