| Beschrijving voorzijde | The note is printed in dark brown ink over a dense red guilloche underprint of repeating palm-tree and circular motifs filling the entire field. A wavy ornamental border frames the design. In bold blackletter script, the legend reads 'Gutschein der Marktgemeinde Leiben im Pielentale,' arranged around a central circular vignette bearing the numeral '20' in a decorative cartouche with scrollwork flanking elements. At the lower margin, the validity date 'Giltig bis 31. Dezember 1920' appears on the left and the place and issue date 'Leiben am 1. Mai 1920' on the right. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is executed in dark brown on a light ground and centres on a detailed intaglio-style vignette of Schloss Leiben, the local castle, set amid rocky terrain with smoke rising above its towers. Flanking the vignette are two text panels in blackletter script: the left panel carries the guarantee text of the Marktgemeinde, signed by the Bürgermeister, and the right panel states the counterfeiting prohibition and the redemption period of 15–31 December 1920, also signed. The denomination '20 Heller' appears in circular cartouches at upper left and upper right, and the caption 'Schloß Leiben im Pielentale' is printed below the central vignette; the designer credit 'ENTW: Jos. J. Boyer' appears at the lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Leiben is a small market town on the Danube in Lower Austria, and like hundreds of similar municipalities it issued Notgeld during the postwar currency chaos of 1920 when small-denomination coins had effectively vanished from circulation. These local emergency issues were authorized under the broad tolerance extended to Austrian communes during the period — not by any formal central banking mechanism, but by practical necessity and administrative indifference from Vienna.
Boyer's name appearing on a piece this minor is worth noting. Jos. J. Boyer produced designs for a number of Lower Austrian Notgeld issues, bringing a level of graphic attention unusual for emergency scrip at this denomination.
