Obverse description Notgeld issued by the Stadt-Sparkasse Canth, printed in dark ink on buff paper with an elaborate geometric and foliate border enclosing an octagonal inner frame. A central circular vignette presents the municipal coat of arms of Canth, flanked on the left by a text panel reading the bearer clause and on the right by the magistrate's facsimile signature. Denomination numeral '25' appears in each corner, with the issuing authority name at top and town name at bottom in bold Gothic lettering.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in dark ink on the same buff stock and enclosed within a crosshatch-patterned outer border with interlaced vine ornaments framing a central oval vignette. The vignette presents a panoramic townscape of Canth with two prominent towers — a slender church steeple to the left and a broader tower to the right — set against a hilly landscape with a dramatic sky rendered in fine line engraving. Denomination numeral '25' appears in circular cartouches at each corner, and the town name is inscribed in Gothic script across the lower portion of the vignette.
