| Obverse description | Printed in dark green and black on light green paper, the upper portion carries a central wreath vignette enclosing a rooster perched on a tree stump, inscribed 'Gemeinde Schmiedefeld' along the wreath border, flanked on either side by detailed illustrations of glassmaking laboratory apparatus — flasks, graduated cylinders, burettes, thermometers, and reagent bottles including one labelled 'Salzsä[ure]'. The lower half bears the large Fraktur text 'Notgeld der Gemeinde Schmiedefeld' with the subtitle 'Glasindustrie- u. Luftkurort 720 m.ü.d.M.', and the denomination '25 Pfennig' appears in bold at lower left and right, flanking validity and place inscriptions with a manuscript signature above the title 'Gemeindevorstand'. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in the same dark green and black on light green stock, divided into three vertical panels. The central panel presents a detailed vignette of the 'Bahnhof Rennsteig' railway station, with a steam locomotive and freight wagons on the foreground tracks and a half-timbered station building set against a forested Thuringian hillside. The left lateral panel shows a primitive nude figure embracing a tree trunk, while the right panel depicts a mounted knight in armour; the denomination numeral '25' and abbreviation 'Pfg' appear in bold at the upper corners. A three-line verse in Fraktur script occupies the lower border panel: 'Wo Urgerman' und Kriegersmann zu Jagd und Kampf einst ritten, den Rennsteig kreuzt die Zahnradbahn jetzt in Gebirges Mitten.' |
