Obverse description The face of this Notgeld gutschein is printed in black letterpress on white paper with a pale rose-brown guilloche underprint incorporating large stylized monogram letters. The note is divided into three vertical panels by ruled lines: the left and right panels each carry the denomination in large bold type reading 'Gut für 20.- Mark, in Worten Zwanzig Mark', while the central panel bears the voucher text, the red typeset serial number, the place and date of issue 'Frankfurt a. M., 1 November 1918', the issuer's name 'Frankfurter Maschinenbau-Akt.-Ges. vorm. Pokorny & Wittekind', and a manuscript signature of an authorized company officer. The entire design is enclosed within a decorative scrollwork border.

Reverse description The reverse is printed entirely in red-brown on cream paper and relies on an elaborate geometric guilloche underprint of interlocking circular and diamond lattice patterns covering the full surface. A prominent central rosette vignette in the same red-brown tone carries the large white numeral '20' at its centre, flanked by two smaller circular engine-turned rosettes. Along the bottom, the denomination is repeated in large bold capitals 'Mark Zwanzig'. A framed text panel at the top contains the redemption conditions in Gothic script, specifying the issuer's cash office in Frankfurt am Main-West and the Deutsche Vereinsbank and Direktion der Diskonto-Gesellschaft as redemption agents, with validity no later than 31 January 1919.
