Obverse description The upper portion carries the title 'Stadt Bleicherode a/S.' in ornate Gothic lettering, beneath which a line-engraved vignette presents the Bleicherode town hall with its clock tower, smoke rising in the background against a lightly shaded underprint. Two circular orange guilloche panels flank the central vignette, each bearing the denomination numeral '25' in red; the left panel carries the validity clause 'Gültig bis 1 Monat nach Aufforderung', while the right panel carries the issuing authority imprint of Der Magistrat dated 'Bleicherode, 1. März 1921', with the written denomination 'Fünfundzwanzig Pfennig' rendered in large decorative script along the lower border.

Reverse description The upper register is divided into three vignettes: at left, a woman working at a traditional hand loom; at centre, the municipal coat of arms of Bleicherode rendered in colour, showing an armoured knight bearing a sword and a chequered shield on a red field; at right, an industrial mining headframe with a chimney emitting smoke. A central circular orange guilloche panel in the lower portion carries the denomination '25 Pf.' in red, flanked on the left by a four-line verse in Gothic script celebrating the town's textile heritage and on the right by a four-line motto referencing its mining and industrial industries.
