| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in steel-blue and black on white paper, centred on a large oval guilloche vignette carrying the bold numeral '25' over a fine wavy-line underprint. The oval is enclosed within a circular band bearing the legend 'STADT · ALZEY' at the top and 'PFENNIG' at the bottom, flanked on each side by a six-pointed star ornament. Elaborately engraved foliate scrollwork fills each corner of the rectangular border, lending the design a stamp-like quality typical of German Notgeld issues. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in steel-blue, with a crosshatch guilloche underprint covering the entire field within a double-rule rectangular border. The issuer name 'Stadt Alzey' appears in a smaller Fraktur script across the top centre, flanked by the numeral '25' in each upper corner; a large bold Fraktur word 'zwanzig' dominates the centre, preceded above by 'fünfund' in a smaller weight, while 'Pfennig' is set below in roman type, and the numeral '25' repeats in each lower corner. |
