Obverse description Plain octagonal zinc field framed by a continuous beaded border running along all eight sides. The issuer's name is rendered in bold raised capital letters arranged across the central field in three lines reading HEDDERNHEIMER / KUPFER / WERK, with a small six-pointed star ornament positioned above the word KUPFER and a second star ornament below WERK. The overall design is purely typographic, with no figurative imagery, reflecting the utilitarian character of German Notgeld emergency coinage of the World War I era.

Reverse description Plain octagonal field enclosed by a continuous beaded border following all eight sides of the flan. The denomination numeral '5' is prominently struck in large bold relief at the centre of the field, with the abbreviated denomination legend 'PF' in smaller capitals positioned immediately below. The design is entirely typographic with no additional ornament or imagery, consistent with the austere functional aesthetic of German industrial Notgeld tokens issued during the wartime coin shortage.
