| Obverse description | Left-facing helmeted bust, rendered in a classical style reminiscent of a Germanic warrior or allegorical figure, occupying the upper central field. The winged helmet features a decorative visor and mail aventail, executed in bold relief. To the lower left of the bust appears the large numeral '5', and to the lower right a single oak leaf sprig, a traditional German heraldic symbol. The design is uncluttered, with a plain field and a raised rim border framing the composition. No legend appears on this side of the pattern. |

| Reverse description | The reverse field bears the bold two-line inscription 'DEUTSCHE MARK' in large sans-serif Latin capital lettering, centrally placed within a plain field. The legend is the sole design element, presented in a stark, modernist typographic style consistent with mid-twentieth-century German coinage aesthetics. A raised rim border frames the inscription. The simplicity of the reverse emphasizes the denomination and currency name without additional emblems or ornamentation. |
