Obverse description The central vignette is framed by a bold black border and surrounded on all four sides by a colourful array of national flags representing American nations, with the Bremen flag at upper left and the flag of the United States at lower left. The central panel, set against a fine guilloche underprint, carries the denomination numeral "25" within an oval cartouche, flanked by decorative scrollwork, with a key emblem at centre below. Two columns of handwritten text in cursive script, divided left and right of the key vignette, convey the validity notice and issuing authority, with two manuscript signatures in green ink below, and a red series letter "B" at centre.

Reverse description The reverse is dominated by a large pictorial vignette in a poster-art style, showing a panoramic view of Santiago de Chile, with terracotta-roofed buildings in the foreground, a wooded hill at centre, and snow-capped Andean peaks rising against a deep blue sky; a church pediment is visible at lower centre amid tropical foliage. The vignette is enclosed within a wide decorative border in red and ochre, with the denomination "25 PFENNIG" repeated vertically on both lateral margins alongside the numeral "25". The inscription "DEUTSCHE AMERIKA-WOCHE" runs across the top of the border, while "Frühjahr 1923 BREMEN Frühjahr 1923" appears along the lower margin in bold red lettering.
