Obverse description Central vignette of the Nöschenrode municipal coat of arms — a horizontally striped red and white shield surmounted by a red crenellated tower — set within an elaborate baroque cartouche of acanthus scrollwork on a blue ground. The denomination numeral "25" occupies ornamental roundels at each corner, while a scroll ribbon across the centre bears the legend "Gemeinde Nöschenrode" with the issue date "15. Juni 1921" flanked to either side. The upper margin carries the redemption notice, and the lower margin bears facsimile signatures of the Schulze and Schöffe together with the place and date of issue, with the printer attribution in small type.

Reverse description The reverse is entirely occupied by a black silhouette papercut composition by Marie Alde, centred on a forester in hat and cape leaning on a staff amid conifers, a small dog at his feet and the municipal shield at left. To the right, a seven-line verse in Low German cursive satirises the Treaty of Versailles, with the word "Luft" inscribed below the silhouette. The artist credit "Scherenschnitt von Marie Alde." is printed in the lower margin.
