Obverse description Ochre-toned notgeld on an amber ground enclosed within a bold black border, with the arched Gothic script legend 'Gutschein der Stadt Mainbernheim' spanning the upper field. At centre, two winged allegorical figures — one male, one female — raise the denomination numeral '25' within a cartouche while their outstretched arms support a large decorative wreath enclosing the municipal coat of arms of Mainbernheim below, above which runs a silhouette of the town's skyline along the lower margin. A facsimile Bürgermeister signature over the text 'der Stadtrat' and the date 'Mainbernheim, Dezember 1920' appears at lower left, with the validity inscription 'Gültig bis 31.3.21.' at right and a red serial number at the lower right corner.

Reverse description Ochre ground within a black border, with four corner medallions each carrying the numeral '25' over a cross-hatched circular underprint. The central vignette, set beneath a framing arch, presents a silhouette scene of townspeople — men, women, and children — queuing before a public building whose tower rises as a pale ghost impression in the background, while silhouette vignettes of local architectural landmarks fill the lateral panels. A lower text panel in Gothic script carries an official notice regarding the collection of sugar ration stamps at the town hall, with a small artist's monogram at its lower right.
