| Obverse description | The large numeral '20' occupies the central field of the token, rendered in bold raised relief. A circular Latin legend reading 'GASWERK A.D. DACHAUERSTR. 20' runs around the periphery, identifying the issuing Munich municipal gasworks on Dachauerstrasse. A small circular hole pierces the upper portion of the flan. The design is plain and utilitarian, with no figurative elements, consistent with German emergency currency (Notgeld) token issues of the early Weimar period. |

| Reverse description | The central field displays the large numeral '20' in bold raised relief, mirroring the obverse denomination. A circular peripheral legend reads 'KEINGELDERSATZMARKE 20', identifying the piece as a small-change substitute token (Kleingeldersatzmarke). A small circular hole is struck through the upper portion of the flan. The overall design is strictly functional, devoid of ornamental detail, in keeping with the emergency coinage practice of German municipal utilities during the inflationary period of 1914–1924. |
