| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cream paper with a light green scrollwork underprint and a bold black square-dashed border frame. The issuer name 'Buchdruckerei Herzogenburg.' appears at the top in Gothic blackletter type, beneath which the denomination voucher text 'Gutschein über Zwanzig Heller' is set in large blackletter script, flanked by '2. Auflage' at left and 'Serie 2' at right. A circular red ink stamp bearing an ornate monogram is applied centrally over the denomination text, and three lines of small Gothic text at the foot state the redemption clause. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by an overall green geometric underprint of interlocking hexagons, diamonds, and vertical bars forming a dense guilloche-style pattern across the entire field, enclosed within a black square-dashed border. At centre, a rectangular black-and-white photographic vignette reproduces a view of a local building — likely the Buchdruckerei or a prominent Herzogenburg structure — with trees and telegraph poles visible in the foreground. No inscriptions appear on the reverse. |

| Opmerkingen |
Herzogenburg is a small Lower Austrian market town best known for its Augustinian monastery, and it was there that the local print shop — Buchdruckerei Herzogenburg — issued its own emergency small change during the acute coin shortage that gripped Austria in the early years of the First World War. These Heller notes, sometimes called Notgeld or Kriegsnotgeld, were produced by the hundreds across Austrian municipalities when hoarding stripped copper and silver from everyday commerce almost overnight.
That the printer and issuer are the same entity is telling. No bank, no municipal authority — just the print shop vouching for its own paper.
