Obverse description	Central vignette with a line-engraved view of the Bad Oeynhausen Bahnhof (railway station), captioned 'Bahnhof' beneath. Two circular medallions flank the vignette: the left bearing the city seal of Bad Oeynhausen with a ladder device, the right showing a civic statue atop a heraldic shield. The denomination '25' appears in all four corners in bold script against blue panels, with the large red gothic title 'Notgeld der Stadt' across the top and 'Bad Oeynhausen' in matching script along the bottom. A manuscript facsimile signature appears to the right of the issuer inscription 'Städtische Sparkasse Bad Oeynhausen', and a horizontal red and gold striped underprint frames the composition throughout.
Obverse lettering	Notgeld der Stadt Dieser Schein verliert am 30. Juni 1921 seine Geltung als Zahlungsmittel. Städtische Sparkasse Bad Oeynhausen Bahnhof (Translation: Emergency money of the city This note loses its validity as legal tender on June 30, 1921. Municipal Savings Bank Bad Oeynhausen Train station)
Reverse description	Central vignette comprising a schematic railway map of northern and central Europe, with Oeynhausen underlined as the focal point amid named cities including Berlin, Hamburg, Bremen, Amsterdam, Köln, Frankfurt, Dresden, Breslau, Danzig, Warschau, and Krakau, with Kopenhagen and coastline outlines to the north. A serial number is stamped in the lower centre of the map field. The ornate border, executed in red, blue, and brown, is composed of bold Art Nouveau scrollwork and stylised grotesque motifs. The denomination '25' appears in the lower left and right corners, and a rectangular cartouche at foot carries a four-line rhyming verse in German.
