| Obverse description | The obverse is set on a lilac-toned guilloche underprint ground, with the municipal coat of arms of Otterndorf — a quartered shield with a lion passant surmounted by a mural crown — centered as the main vignette. The denomination '25 Pfennig' appears in bold black Gothic lettering flanking the arms on both sides. At the foot of the note, a dated text panel reads 'Otterndorf, 1. Dezember 1920' with manuscript signatures of the Magistrat and Bürgervorsteher below, and a redemption clause in Gothic script runs along the lower border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a central rectangular vignette in a pink-rose tone showing a harbour scene of Otterndorf's outer port (Außenhafen), with sailing vessels and mooring posts rendered in a detailed line-art style against a clouded sky. The denomination '25' appears in each corner within the decorative border, and a Low German verse is inscribed in the upper purple panel. The lower purple panel bears the place name 'Otterndorf a/e: Außenhafen' in Gothic lettering, with the printer's imprint 'Johann Hinrich Meyer, Hamburg 8' at the very foot. |
