The denomination "Zwanzig Mark" is rendered in large decorative red Fraktur script across the centre, above the issue date "Traunstein, 20. April 1919" and the issuing authority "Stadtgemeinde Traunstein". A circular official municipal stamp in violet occupies the lower centre, flanked by manuscript signatures of the Bürgermeister, Stadtkämmerer, and Finanzreferat, with a serial number in the upper right corner and repeated underprint numerals "20 M" in the background.
