Obverse description The obverse is set against a fine guilloche underprint and carries the Gothic script header 'Notgeld des Kreises Reichenbach i/Schl.' across the top. A central rectangular vignette, framed with an orange border in stamp-like style, shows a silhouetted ploughman with a horse working a field. Large denomination numerals '25' and the abbreviation 'Pf.' appear in bold Fraktur typeface to the left and right of the vignette, with the series designation 'Reihe I' in red at lower left, a six-digit red serial number at lower right, and the validity clause 'Gültig bis 1 Monat nach Aufruf' flanked by multiple manuscript facsimile signatures; the printer's imprint 'Flemming-Wiskott A.-G. Glogau' appears at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is dominated by a full-face vignette rendered in a fine engraved style illustrating a traditional Silesian domestic weaving workshop: a male weaver operates a large hand loom at left, while a woman and child work at a spinning wheel at right, with a wall clock and window visible in the background. The scene is enclosed within a decorative border of interlocking sawtooth and chain motifs, with circular medallions in each corner each bearing the numeral '25'.
