| Obverse description | The obverse carries a bold header inscription 'GUTSCHEIN v. NEUSTADT i. HOLSTEIN' within a black-bordered panel, flanked by ornamental floral arabesques at each corner. The central vignette, set within a salmon-orange diamond frame, presents a humorous caricature scene — a boy labelled 'Patriot' holding a small flag confronted by a man labelled 'Ein dänisch gesinnter Mensch', with a dialogue in Gothic script between them. The denomination '25 PF.' appears in each of the four quadrants, and the lower margin bears the validity inscription 'Ein guter Patriot / Gültig bis 31. Juli 1921' alongside two manuscript facsimile signatures above the titles 'Bürgermeister' and 'Stadtverordnetenvorsteher'. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in salmon-orange and green tones, with 'NEUSTADT IN HOLSTEIN' in large Gothic lettering across the top and the denomination '25 Pf.' flanking a central circular vignette. The vignette shows a line-engraved view of the local church (labelled 'Kirche') set amid trees, rendered in a delicate illustrative style within a pale blue circular frame with a scalloped border. Two lower lateral panels in green carry patriotic verse inscriptions in Gothic script, and the serial number is printed below the central vignette. |
