Obverse description Printed on an olive-green guilloche underprint with a fine cross-hatch lattice ground, the obverse carries the coloured civic coat of arms of Wunsiedel — a heraldic eagle surmounting a quartered shield flanked by two red lions — within a circular vignette enclosed by elaborate black scrollwork at centre top. The bold blackletter denomination '25 Pfennig' occupies the centre field, with corner numerals '25' in red, below which the issuing authority, validity clause, place, date, and facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister are set in blackletter typeface.

Reverse description The reverse shares the same olive-green guilloche underprint with cross-hatch background, centred on a rectangular vignette within a decorative cartouche presenting a coloured view of a medieval stone gate tower with an arched passage at its base and adjoining rooftops — a local Wunsiedel landmark. Flanking the vignette, the numeral '25' in ornate dark-red Gothic script within an oval guilloche panel appears to the left, mirrored by the abbreviation 'Pf.' in matching style to the right, with a printed serial number in the upper right corner.
