Obverse description Central vignette of the coat of arms of Catalonia set above a panoramic view of the town as seen from the sea, with fishing boats in the foreground. Surrounding inscriptions give the issuing authority, denomination, date of issue, and legal tender declaration, all printed by letterpress. The overall layout is framed by simple ruled borders typical of Civil War-era municipal emergency issues.

Reverse description Printed in red on plain paper, the reverse is dominated by a central vignette of three reeds — the heraldic symbol of the local municipal shield — flanked on either side by ornate scrollwork cartouches. The denomination '25' appears in large numerals at centre left, with 'Cts' abbreviated to the right, while the text 'AJUNTAMENT' arches across the top within a curved banner and 'D'ALCANAR' is set in bold capitals across the lower portion.
