Obverse description Central field features the large numeral '5' in bold relief, enclosed within a dotted inner circle surmounted by a small crown-like ornament at apex. The circular legend reads 'MAX. JAHN' across the upper field and 'LEUTZSCH' across the lower field, flanked by five-pointed stars as separators. The entire design is bordered by a continuous outer beaded ring running along the rim. The strike is utilitarian in style, consistent with wartime Notgeld emergency coinage production.

Reverse description Central field displays the large numeral '5' in bold relief, encircled by a wreath-style rope or cord border open at the base. Three five-pointed stars appear at the lower portion of the inner circle. The peripheral legend 'KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE' runs continuously around the field, denoting this token's function as a small-change substitute. The outer rim is decorated with a raised beaded border. The overall design reflects the plain, functional aesthetic typical of German First World War municipal Notgeld issues.
