Reverse description Red-brown letterpress vignette after a design by Friedrichsbrunn, occupying the full central field, portraying a group of figures tobogganing on a snow-covered Harz mountain slope, with trees and a distant sledder visible in the background. The issuer's title in Gothic script is set within a rectangular panel at upper centre, flanked at each corner by the numeral '5' above a decorative monogram device. The composition conveys a regional winter leisure scene characteristic of early Weimar-era Notgeld pictorial issues.
