| Obverse description | A detailed pen-and-ink style vignette occupies the lower portion of the note, presenting a panoramic view of Eggenburg's town square with the Gothic Stadtpfarrkirche and historic civic buildings rendered in fine line engraving. The upper portion carries the title inscription in ornate Gothic blackletter script within a ruled border, with a smaller inset vignette of a church facade at upper left and the denomination '20 Heller' set in a box at upper right. The entire design is set against a wavy-line guilloche underprint, and three manuscript signature lines appear at the base captioned 'Der Vizebürgermeister:', 'Der Bürgermeister:', and 'Der Gemeinderat:'. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is enclosed within a double-ruled rectangular border and centres on a circular reproduction of the medieval town seal of Eggenburg, showing a fortified city gate with towers, surrounded by a Latin legend, captioned below 'Stadtwappen aus dem 13. Jahrhundert.' A two-line verse in Gothic blackletter script runs across the top of the field, and a redemption text in German Fraktur type flanks the seal on both sides, stating the municipality's liability. An anti-counterfeiting warning appears at the foot, with the printer's imprint 'Pressevereinsdruckerei Eggenburg.' in small letterpress type below the border. |
