The denomination '42 Goldpfennig gleich Dollar: 1/10' is set in bold blackletter script beneath the heading 'Wertbeständiger Notgeldschein / Genehmigt vom Reichsfinanzministerium', followed by a lengthy redemption text, two manuscript signatures, and the issue date 26.11.23. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in green on white paper and carries a central woodcut-style vignette, signed 'Röhm' in the upper left corner, showing the traditional Nördlingen night watchman in a fur-trimmed coat, lantern in hand, calling out against a starry nocturnal sky with the St. Georg church tower visible to his left. Below the vignette, a two-column humorous verse in blackletter script addresses the local drinking tax theme, followed by the bold denomination line '1. Stunde 20 Pfg.', and at the foot an oval official stamp of the Stadtrat Nördlingen with a serial number and the abbreviated year '192'. |
